Espeja Avieda, Alejandra
Or, four bell towers issuant from base Gules, windows Or.
Escudo de oro, cuatro campanarios movientes de la punta de gules, aclarados de oro.
Coat of arms interpreted by me, in flat tinctures, outlined in Sable, with a semi-circular external shape and with a texturized finishing.
Coat of arms of Alejandra Espeja Avieda designed by Juan Lanzagorta Vallín and emblazoned by me. The structure of this coat of arms is based on the arms «Or shield with four pallets Gules» of Ramon Berenguer IV, Count of Barcelona, which are the arms of the Kingdom of Aragon. Blazoning specific, real-world objects in coats of arms should be avoided. Therefore, in the blazon I describe «four bell towers». However, in this case, for artistic reasons, to echo the elongated form of the four pallets Gules, and due to the origin of the bearer, I depict four bell towers inspired by those on the Nativity Façade of Gaudí’s Sagrada Família in Barcelona.
Blazon keywords: Or, Gules and Four.
Style keywords: Outlined in sable, Plain tincture and Semi-circular.
Classification: Personal, Interpreted, Boa and Coat of arms.
Bearer: Espeja Avieda, Alejandra.

Marchant, G.; 1499
Guy Marchant, printer, «Compost et Kalendrier des Bergères», 68 folio leaves, more than 80 woodcut illustrations, Paris, August 17th, 1499.
This work complements the «Kalendrier des Bergiers» (1491), intended for a male audience, while this «Compost» is aimed at women readers, «Calendar of the Shepherdesses». Both books combine astrology, medicine, Christian morality, and practical advice. It includes numerous didactic woodcuts.
The image shows a golden armillary sphere, to be used in one of the versions of the coat of arms of Jean-Christophe Loubet del Bayle, extracted by me from one of the astrological pages of this book, page 15, «a iii».
Bibliographical reference of century XV.
Classification: In black and white, French language and Incunabulum.
