The one with the Cross on his back ~ Crouchback (1245–1296)

Arms of England; overall, a label Azure of three points, each charged with three fleurs-de-lis Or in pale.

Arms interpreted as follows: the mouth of the shield is semicircular (round); the field enamelled in a flat tint of Gules; the label and figures illuminated in Or and Azure and outlined in Sable; and the whole finished with a watercolour effect.

He was the second son of King Henry III of England, and took part in the Ninth Crusade, hence the epithet «Cross on the back».

In 1253 he was appointed Earl of Chester, holding dominion, among others, over the county of Cheshire, but the following year Pope Innocent IV granted him the crown of Sicily, so he ceded his earldom to his elder brother Edward I of England, however, he never came to occupy the throne of Sicily.

The label is an honourable ordinary and also «a kind of mark of cadency, and the most noble of all those used to differentiate the Arms of the younger sons of a House» [Avilés, J.; 1725a; page 248] and it can likewise be used by the eldest son while his father's arms are still in use, ceasing to bear the label when he inherits his father’s coat. When both the eldest and the second son bear a label, the latter’s label then has more points or is charged with figures to distinguish it.

The label is constructed with «a fillet, which is one-ninth of the width of the chief, with three pendants in the form of carpentry wedges or ill-shaped triangles, joined to it without any line of separation, falling twice as far as the fillet is wide, two placed at the ends and one in the middle, its usual position being in the centre of the chief’s length, without reaching the edges of the shield» [Avilés, J.; 1725a; page 248].

Edward IV King of England and Lord of Ireland, «The Armorial of Edward IV», «The Edward IV Roll», armorial in the form of a roll about 6 meters long, created to celebrate the coronation of Edward IV as the first King of England from the House of York and illustrated, probably, by different artists, 1461.

The image illustrating this reference corresponds to the banner, which is number 27 in the 2^nd column, the final one of this armorial. This banner is held by a white deer, which was a personal badge of King Richard II of England, and also, two white deer were the supporters of his shield. The reason for the inclusion of this white deer might be to contribute to the legitimization of Edward IV as king.

It is notable that in row 25 of the 2^nd column of this armorial there is a banner with the arms of the shield of Castilla y León, probably because Edward IV, like his predecessors, claimed their throne. In this version of the shield of Castilla y León:

• The two gold castles, in the 1^st and 4^th quarters of gules, have three towers with the central one taller like the Castilian, but the twin side towers seem to be connected by the wall as in the English castle, [Valero de Bernabé, L.; 2009a; page 2] and [Valero de Bernabé, L.; 2009b; page 33], the wall has a door that is enameled in azure as in the Castilian.
• The two lions, in the 2^nd and 3^rd quarters of silver, seem to be gold, therefore, of «metal on metal» and, furthermore, very different from the purple lion of Castilla y León, it could well be an error by the artist or a degradation of an original purple enamel to ochre, as explained in the pendón de Castilla y León.

This shield of Castilla y León also appears:

• On the banner in row 27 of the 1^st column of this armorial. In this banner, they are combined with the arms of England represented in this article, in a new quartered, under an escutcheon with the imaginary arms of «Brutus of Troy», the also imaginary founder and king of Britain.
• On the caparison of the horse that Edward IV rides in the portrait at the beginning of his armorial. This caparison is a reproduction of the previous banner in row 27 of the 1^st column that combined the arms of England with those of Castilla y León. The presence of these arms in this initial portrait of the armorial of Edward IV denotes the importance he gave to his aspirations to the crown of Castilla y León.

Leopardo leonado ~ Leopard rampant guardant

About the term 'leopardos leonados' (leopards rampant guardant), [Avilés, J.; 1780a; page 99] writes that «it is said of leopards rampant» and shows an example in [Avilés, J.; 1725a; plate 7, figure 138] a shield Azure, with a leopard rampant Argent, looking towards the viewer's face, that is, 'leonado' (rampant guardant), and in this case 'difamado' (cowardly, without a tail).

León leopardado ~ Lion passant guardant

In [Avilés, J.; 1780a; page 330] he again emphasizes the term 'leonado' (rampant guardant) when writing that the posture of the leopard «is never rampant, like that of the Lion, but passant; because if ever the Leopards are put rampant, they are blazoned 'Leopardos Leonados' (Leopards Rampant Guardant), for adopting the posture that Lions have in armory», and he also takes the opportunity to introduce the term 'leopardado' (passant guardant), which is complementary to 'leonado' (rampant guardant), telling us «in the same way, Lions are blazoned 'Leones Leopardados' (Lions Passant Guardant), when they are passant, because it is the posture of the Leopards».

Arms emblazoned by me, highlighted with lights and shadows, contoured in Sable, with a semi-circular external shape and with a freehand finishing.

Coat of arms of Juan Lanzagorta Aras designed by Juan Lanzagorta Vallín and emblazoned by me. In the case of bendy fields like these, it is not immediately clear whether they should be blazoned as bendy Azure and Or and bendy Azure and Argent, or rather as bendy Or and Azure and bendy Argent and Azure. I have followed the criterion of starting to list the tinctures from the dexter chief of each quarter, and for that reason I blazon them as bendy, in this case wavy bendy, Azure and Or and wavy bendy Azure and Argent, since in both quarters it is Azure that begins at the dexter chief.
