Sebastián González Montenegro en Doce Linajes

First publication of my interpretation of the arms of Sebastián González Montenegro, on the blog Twelve Lineages of Soria in an article entitled Coats of arms of Mr. Sebastián González Montenegro, works by Mr. Antonio Salmerón Cabañas.

San Miguel del Ala and the National Monarchist Brotherhood of Spain

Second publication of my interpretation of the arms of Sebastián González Montenegro, on the blog Twelve Lineages of Soria including his insignias of the Order of Saint Michael of the Wing and of the National Monarchist Brotherhood of Spain.

The first publication is from March 29 and the second publication is later, from May 14.


In the first quarter of the inescutcheon of this coat of arms there is «a bend Or engouled by two dragon heads of the same, issuing from the corners» following the blazon structure of [Avilés, J.; 1780a; page 84], although it can also be blazoned more briefly as «a bend Or engouled by dragons».

The attribute engouled is used for «bends, crosses, saltires, and all other ordinaries, whose ends are in the mouths of lions, leopards, or dragons» according to [Avilés, J.; 1780a; page 83]. It is a word of French origin meaning to swallow or to engulf, that is, the beasts are devouring the ordinary.

Escutcheon ~ escudete

The English term «escutcheon» corresponds to our Spanish term «escudete». It is used when there are several, for example, 3. Although in this case there is only one, this is the term used in the official blazon of this coat of arms, as will be seen below.

Thistle ~ cardo

This coat of arms of The Heraldry Society of Scotland was registered and granted ~ «granted» on 7th September 1977, by «The Court of the Lord Lyon», which is the official college of arms for Scotland, lyon-court.com, with the following blazon: «Azure, on a saltire argent between two thistles slipped argent, one in chief and one in base, an escutcheon gules» and it contains 2 thistles, which is the national flower of Scotland, and a saltire Argent on an Azure field, like the flag of Scotland.

Slipped ~ nurido

The usual way of representing the thistle ~ «thistle» in Castile is with its roots visible, it is called «arrancado». In this case the stem is cut and its roots are not visible, it is called «slipped» ~ «nurido».

The Arms of Felipe VI for the Order of the Garter at Windsor Castle by Baz Manning

The British heraldic artist Baz Manning, responsible for painting the coats of arms of the Order of the Garter in St George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle, produced in polychromed wood the armorial bearings of His Majesty King Felipe VI of Spain following his admission into the Order. During this process, I had the honour of assisting him by providing official documentation, explaining the heraldic differences between the arms of Juan Carlos I and Felipe VI, clarifying various points, and reviewing the final details of the work prior to its installation in Windsor. The illustration accompanying this post is a collage made from a photograph of the completed shield, crafted by him in painted wood, sent to me by Baz Manning while it was drying, with explicit instructions not to publish it until its formal placement in the chapel. I used that image together with my own artistic interpretation of the King’s arms to carry out a detailed, side-by-side verification of every element. Although my contribution was modest, I am deeply proud to have taken part in a work destined to occupy a permanent place within one of the United Kingdom’s most emblematic heraldic settings.
