187^th Pope of the Church, from 1276 to 1277. «Johannes XXI», born Pedro Julião, also known as Pedro Hispano, born in Lisbon, Portugal.

Quarterly: 1 and 4 Argent, three crescents Gules; 2 and 3 Sable, two pallets Or.

Escudo cuartelado: 1^o y 4^o de plata, tres crecientes de gules; 2^o y 3^o de sable, dos palos de oro.

Coat of arms with: a shield with a pointed and rounded top; the field in plain Argent and Sable; the figures outlined in Sable and illuminated in Gules and Or; and the whole in an elevated line style.

John XXI should have actually been John XX, but Cardinal Pedro Julião, upon being elected pope, decided to skip the number XX and called himself John XXI, with the aim of correcting what was believed to be a historical error, which in the end was not so.

This historical error consisted of the belief in the existence of 2 popes named John XIV, as seemed to be deduced from the records of the «Liber Pontificalis». They were therefore referred to as: the 1^st John XIV and the 2^nd John XIV bis.

By skipping the number XX, John XXI believed he was correcting this historical error. But the reality is that there was only one Pope John XIV, the same pope with 2 entries in the «Liber Pontificalis», the 1^st entry during the time of his pontificate in freedom and the 2^nd entry for the time he exercised his pontificate in prison, imprisoned by his enemy, the so-called «antipope» Boniface VII, who, in turn, managed to occupy the papal throne twice, separated by a decade, in 974 and in 984, somewhat like a double «antipope».

Therefore, John XXI, instead of correcting a historical error, made one, and for this reason, there is no Pope John XX in all of history, nor can there ever be one.

Almorrabides of Navarre Or, three Pallets Azure.

Paly of six Azure and Or; over all a bend Azure.

For this comparison I make the optical illusion as if the coat of arms of Almorrabides de Navarra was Azure, instead of being Or, and the Pallets Or, instead of being Azure. Para esta comparación hago el juego visual como si el escudo de Almorrabides de Navarra fuera de Azur, en vez de ser de Oro, y que los palos que sobresalen iluminados son los de Oro, en vez de ser los de Azur.

Transform the blazon «Or» into «Or, five Pommes in saltire» and the blazon «Argent» into «Argent, five Hurts in saltire» moving the pommes and hurts through both metals, without breaking the rule of tinctures.

You can change one charge by another one, but only once.

For example, if you change «Sable, a Bend Argent» by «Sable, a Pale Argent», then the Pommes can arrive to «Or» blazon. However, this is not a solution, because the Hurts cannot walk to «Argent» blazon.

For example, if you change «Azure, a Cross Argent» by «Azure, a Pall Argent», then the Pommes can arrive to «Or» blazon and the Hurts can arrive to «Argent» blazon. You can view both paths azure and vert in the following image.

Other solution is to change «Azure, a Cross Argent» by «Azure, a Bordure Argent».

The coat of arms of Ignasi Pujol was designed by him based on the ancient arms of the Pujol lineage and refined and emblazoned by me. In the English blazon, I used the term «pallet», which is the diminished pale, and in the Castilian blazon, I used the term «palo». However, in Castilian, the term «vara», which is a diminished pale, could have been used, writing «cuatro varas de gules» in the same style as it was written in English «four pallet Gules».

The coat of arms of Catherine de Romanet emblazoned by me. Blazon in French: «D'azur, au pal d'argent chargé de trois chevrons de sable et accosté de deux lions affrontés d'or, armés et lampassés de gueules». Alternative blazon: «Azure, a pale Argent, charged with three chevronels Sable, between two lions combatant Or, armed and langued Gules».

Or, three pallets Vair.

The coat of arms of the Marquis Prato di Arnesano, requested by Andrea Tamburelli Lanzara and painted by me. When a field is charged with 3 pallets, it results in 7 vertical areas: 4 belong to the field, 1 on the dexter, 2 between the pallets, and 1 on the sinister, and 3 correspond to the pallets themselves. In most cases, and especially in the present one, it is ideal that these 7 areas be of equal width. This allows me to apply a fur pattern like vair using a 7 columns structure, with 7 little bells of vair in the chief, so that each pallet contains the same vair arrangement. In this case, for greater harmony, I have also arranged the vair in 7 rows, although this is not required. The figure illustrates this concept.
