The authors, both of whom are Officers of Arms, trace the history of the use of heraldry through the ages, from its origins on the tournament fields of twelfth century Europe, to its use today by corporations and individuals. Heraldic decoration has evolved gradually, becoming a precise art with its own rules and methods. Originally decorated with simple geometric shapes, shields acquired more intricate charges through the centuries: a menagerie of fantastic beasts, birds and flora, as well as embellishments such as supporters, helms and crests. The role of the heralds themselves has changed; from being mere recorders of coats of arms, they now create them and play an important ceremonial role on state occasions.
An absorbing and authoritative text is accompanied by an extensive selection of colour and black-and-white illustrations, many of which have never been published before. Complete with a glossary of major heraldic terms. Heraldry is an invaluable and colourfiil guide to an important historical subject. Vissza
