Heraldry is a western science that studies the design and application of heraldry. The word heraut comes from heraut (old French). It is said that at the horse racing meeting in the Middle Ages, knights were all dressed up, and you could tell who was who just by the coat of arms on the shield. The heraldry at the meeting used heraldry to report the knight's game to the audience (a bit like today's sports commentary), and gradually heraldry became a generation of heraldry experts.

Heraldry (French: héraldique;; ; German: Heraldik;; English: heraldry). The composition and color of heraldry are strictly regulated, and its research is not only a part of cultural history, but also helpful for historical research, such as judging genealogy and identifying the ages of works of art and cultural relics.

Edit the design of this coat of arms.

The simplest coat of arms is a monochrome coat of arms without any design, but this kind of coat of arms is rare, and most of them are.

This chapter consists of many colors and patterns.

The shape of the coat of arms frame is not strictly regulated, and it is mostly shield-shaped, while the coat of arms used by women is mostly diamond.

colour

The strictest rule of heraldry is to use color. There are two colors, one is metallic, including gold and silver, and the other is common, including blue, red, purple, black and green. The color of the coat of arms is only conceptual, and it doesn't matter whether it is different in depth with the naked eye. For example, you can generally use gold and yellow, and you can also use silver and white. Blood red and peach red belong to red, there is no difference. The principle of color is: they belong to the same color and cannot be adjacent. For example, gold should not be adjacent to silver, and red should not be adjacent to purple. The original intention of this rule is obviously to form a contrast of depth, so that the coat of arms looks distinct and easy to distinguish. Most modern national flags also follow this rule.

direction

In heraldry, the direction is from the perspective of heraldry itself, not from the perspective of observers.

Edit this paragraph: British heraldry college

The heraldry college in Britain is the oldest, and it operates like the Middle Ages. Their work coat of arms

It is to record, manage, approve and make heraldry. Nobles and noble families and their descendants are the holders of heraldry. The coat of arms is not only a kind of emblem, but also a record of family tree, reputation and achievements. It can be said that it is a witness to the effectiveness and legitimacy of the coat of arms, and it is also a witness to history. All this is officially preserved by the heraldry college, and its records include official copies of heraldry colleges around the country. You may be surprised that heraldry is more widely used today. The owner of the modern coat of arms is no longer a feudal owner, but a coat of arms used by many national organizations, governments, people and commercial institutions. This is not purely artistic design. Formal application to heraldry society can only be made after it is approved. Take the emblem of the Hong Kong Medical Association as an example. This is one of the few shield and helmet symbols in Hong Kong. It was in 1974 that the Medical Association applied to the Institute of British Emblem for the design patent of fingerprint instrument, which was successfully approved in 75 and adopted as the emblem in 76.

Early history

As early as ancient times, different tribes tried to express their characteristics in concrete ways: clothes and headdresses had different colors and symbols, especially animal symbols and corresponding early gods. This external difference makes it possible to distinguish soldiers from different tribes on the battlefield. This custom has been passed down to early civilizations and soldiers-especially the arms of Babylon and Persia.

Generals in China prefer to make shields and flags with the same graphics or characters for their troops. Different kinds of animals can also be found on the shields of ancient Greek soldiers: lions, war horses, hunting dogs, wild boar or raptors. Roman legions also used their unique symbols. During this period, the graphic elements on the shield only played a decorative role. In the battle, it is the color difference between the legion flag, the pennant held by the combat team and the soldiers' clothing that plays a decisive role in distinguishing the enemy from the enemy. Although these rough, only color differences make it possible to distinguish between the enemy and ourselves at a long distance, these colors will be re-selected by the commander before each battle, even before each battle-just like the football club will choose different jersey colors every season and before each game (in order to distinguish it from the opponent's colors). On this basis, a relatively fixed flag style has gradually formed (today, some combat groups choose to use distinctive flags, colors and symbols of the delegation's spirit in addition to the flags prescribed by the state). ), these relatively simple colors and symbols were also uniformly made on soldiers' shields and gradually evolved into coat of arms.

Middle Ages

After the arrival of the feudal era, the lords also began to choose their own symbols. In the great battles of the feudal era, hundreds of war regiments participated. Due to the more frequent technical exchanges between soldiers' equipment manufacturers and the system of taking them for themselves after being captured, the differences in soldiers' equipment are gradually becoming less obvious. Under such a general trend, the colors and symbols used on shields become more and more important, and people tend to use more combinations of colors and geometric shapes. Until the middle of 12 century, the colors and symbols of heraldry were still only related to the soldiers themselves. The user decides which symbol to use and whether it is necessary to change these symbols during his career as a soldier. We can also see that 1 1 century's "estuary tapestry" was woven with some patterns of the shields and flags of the Anglo-Saxon and Norman soldiers who participated in the Hastings Battle in 1066. In this era of William the Conqueror, monarchs also wore light armor, and the weight of this armor became heavier and heavier in the next few hundred years. The open helmet was replaced by the all-inclusive knight helmet, which also covered the wearer's face. During the Crusade, many lords joined in every battle, which greatly promoted the development of heraldry. device

Another reason for the existence of heraldry comes down to various competitions between knights in medieval peacetime (even among knights in the later period) for martial arts competitions and performances. The battle itself is highly stylized. A knight who loses in a one-on-one fight usually loses his horse and armor, which was very expensive at that time. /kloc-knights in the 0/2 th century were almost unrecognizable under full body armor. Therefore, competitors usually decorate their shields with their own or their masters' arms. /kloc-at the beginning of the 0/3rd century, even low-ranking knights were allowed to use their own arms. In the embryonic period of heraldry (12nd century), these heraldry basically followed the doctrine of pragmatism. It is very important to mark the coat of arms. Through these marks, the host of the game can easily summon the corresponding knights before the game begins. Through endless fighting, some heraldry gradually accumulated considerable prestige, and people began to use these heraldry on their family houses to show their identity. Naturally, the colors and elements used in the heraldry begin to show the relationship between family members, and some heraldry are even so famous that they are accompanied by short label names (usually in the form of ribbon words, just like the words on the ribbon of the modern national emblem).

Editing this diamond-the patent of early women

As an accessory on the battlefield, people will naturally associate it with men and think it is not suitable for women to wear. Since the late Middle Ages, women who were qualified to wear heraldry began to wear diamond-shaped shields, but the first time to use such shields was uncertain. It is worth noting that there is an existing English seal around 1347, which belongs to Joan, the daughter of Earl Henry and the widow of Warren, Earl of Surrey. There are five small diamond shields in the complex seal design. The diamond shield in the middle has Warenne's coat of arms, the diamond shield on the side has de Barre's coat of arms, and the diamond seals on the upper and lower sides have English coats of arms-the mother of the Countess of Joan is Eleanor, who is the daughter of Edward I of England. The seal is also decorated with the design of the castle and the jumping lion, which was designed for Eleanor Castilla, the first wife of King Henry. In Britain, France and low countries in the15th century, the diamond badge has become a platform for single women to display their badges, so it can continue to this day. The rough design in the past has been replaced by the oval one now. However, although men sometimes use the oval shape, the diamond shape is the patent of early women. Unmarried women simply pin their father's coat of arms on diamonds or oval seals, and sometimes there are blue bends and ribbons, which are symbols of virginity. /kloc-a heraldry expert in the 0/8th century believed that it was difficult for unmarried women to keep heraldry, so they should be combined with other heraldry. Singles have the right to wear helmets, crowns and proverbs, but according to traditional heralds, neither married nor single women can wear crowns. In Germany, unmarried daughters can wear a shield with their father's coat of arms, and the shield can be supported by a ring; In Scotland, the female leader of a tribe has the right to wear a crown on a diamond or oval seal.

Edit the combination and unity of this coat of arms.

The coat of arms combines color and symbolic meaning, showing people its most spectacular and brilliant side. For centuries, heraldic brackets are not inferior, conforming to the development of the times. By the late15th century, it had lost its original function on the battlefield (due to the ruthless destruction of the war and the pride of the wearer in wearing brand-new armor), but it only gave the coat of arms other functions. As early as13rd century, heraldry was combined to symbolize the relationship between the two families, but this is not all heraldry wants to express. In addition, knights make full use of heraldry to show their friendship, piety, enthusiasm or responsibility. As time went on, monarchs placed their heralds next to other rulers, announcing that they were the backbone of the world. According to medieval thought, when they entered the Elysium, there was such a place for the souls of the dead. Local landlords also decorate their castles or manors with weapons of the same level. What is unforgettable is Gilling Castle of Fairfax family in Yorkshire, England. The big room of the castle is decorated with colorful tree murals of Elizabeth I period, on which are hung the shields of many landlord families who are in charge of some administrative districts or "small towns". Elsewhere, the knight's coat of arms to express friendship seems a bit casual, so graffiti is not a modern product: seven centuries ago, the Crusaders, some Flemish knight teams, witnessed the shield, crown and signature graffiti on stones and plaster in Bethlehem, the birthplace of Jesus.

Edit the patented form of this coat of arms.

Since the late Middle Ages, those who were given heraldry often accepted heraldry in the form of official documents, which were written on parchment, kraft paper or plain paper. The earliest style was very simple, just a thin piece of paper, stamped with a seal and wrapped with a rope. The recipient's coat of arms is painted in color in the middle of a blank page or document. Whether in Latin or by the organization that issued the coat of arms, the coat of arms and the person who granted it will be described. The heraldry patent has become exquisite, decorated with the emblem of the monarch or the heraldry of the heraldry institution. In British patents, the first capital letter is wrapped around the emblem of the signed document and the portrait of the dean. The edges and titles of patent certificates are decorated with scrolls and ribbons, and decorated with birds, flowers, animals and fables. Sometimes real heraldry finds creativity here. In Britain and Scotland, the coat of arms is given in the original traditional format (on a piece of paper), while in other countries, it is issued in the form of a separate book, one page of which is painted with a badge pattern, and the other pages describe the family tree, title and personal history of the winner. The cover is wrapped in leather or velvet and embossed with the monarch's coat of arms. Today, the national heraldic authority that still exists continues this tradition. When the draft coat of arms patent certificate is drawn up, it will be clear that single-book certificate is still popular in Spain, while paper certificate is popular in England, Scotland, Canada and the Netherlands. Ireland has recently adopted patent certificates in the form of pamphlets. These are from the collection of Daniel de Brewin, a famous Dutch heraldry and sculptor. The collection shows people the artistic traditions of heraldry institutions in several major European countries, provides a perspective for people to study how heraldry works in political factors, and also reflects the rulers' reward and punishment system for servants and the continuation of heraldry tradition. The grant of heraldry also shows the charm and professional field of heraldry patent personalization. Sadly, this single-line heraldic patent ended with the collapse of the monarchy in World War I, but at that time, most patent certificates evolved into standard typesetting formats, only badges were hand-drawn and letters were hand-made. In addition, in recent years, the heraldic college in London has returned to the ancient writing form, using the decoration of heraldic patent certificates from time to time. This graphic form caused the buzz of the art world, which coincided with the period from the late Middle Ages to18th century. If the customer can pay the required fees, the decorative edge of the patent can decorate many flowers and maple leaves, which can be badges and patterns from the grantee's coat of arms, exotic creatures, or birds and beasts in the grantee's home. The choice of graphic elements is very extensive, which makes the tradition of illustration heraldry continue. 1663, Austrian doctor Jacob Daisel was awarded this graphic coat of arms, which described the flora and occupation of his country. At the same time, in 1795, the left picture of Hungarian brother Georgievies shows the local scene, including pictures of two brothers' apartments.

Edit this medieval family coat of arms

"Si monument um requiem, ring spice" (if you see the monument one day, look carefully) This is the writing carved by Christopher, the designer of St. Paul's Cathedral, at the north gate of the church. Centuries ago, the same words were also used by many people on the heraldic of castles and churches to continue the immortal feats of families or individuals. In the Middle Ages, there was a Hahnge Ford family in the west of England. They own a Farley Castle, which provides us with an excellent example. These nobles tried to carve all the symbols that could represent their authority on walls, stones, stained glass, parchment and brocade. Hahnge Ford family and other aristocratic families usually use heraldry as a medium to transmit information: "I am heraldry, and hurting heraldry is equivalent to hurting me-you will.

Status symbol

In a word, the Ford family in Hahnge is not the most outstanding, but it is typical of that era: sometimes gentle, sometimes violent, self-reliant, rich, owning their own land, conceited and backward in thought and behavior. /kloc-The family reached its peak in the late 4th century and early 5th century, when the York family and house of lancaster were fighting. This is also a glorious period for the development of English heraldry, flags and various signs. The Ford family in Hahnge made full use of the decoration of sickles or their variants-forming three patterns of sickles embedded in different ways. Arms play an important role in aristocratic families. The Ford family in Hahnge printed heraldry on seals, barns, exterior buildings and chapels, and carved sickle patterns on seats, ceilings and church castles. Vostel was the first baron of the Ford family in Hahnge. He is also a friend and adviser of the King of Lancaster, and he has the same rights as the knight of the Guardian Medal, so he put the coat of arms in St. George's Church. In court, he always wears a Ss-shaped collar to show his loyalty to the dynasty.

Acquisition of heraldry

Although the Hahnge Ford family was nothing at that time, the heraldry they used attracted people's interest. The heraldry of Heytesbury family (red vertical sawtooth pattern, green background and gold V pattern) can be adopted because the heiress of Heytesbury family married the Hungerffords family, and later the Hungerffords family used the heraldry of FitzJohn family (black background, two sticks, three metal plates on the main belt). The crown (a bundle of wheat) between the two sickles on the Hungerford family coat of arms came from the Pei Foehrer family, and this combination of arms was not common at that time. The Hungerford family is a low-ranking aristocrat and has no right to wear heraldry. The reason for their success now is through their marriage with heraldic heirs and wealthy families. Even the crown of the Hungerford family is a little mysterious-can a bundle of wheat or pepper be the joke of the name Peverel? The Hahnge Fords are satisfied with the use of sickles. This kind of decoration has been recognized by many families and is also the first choice for furniture decoration. According to the last wish of the guardian knight-worster Hungerford (confirmed in August, 2 1447, 1 2008), his son Robert inherited his "two crimson velvet altar clothes with different embroidered edges, a silver plate and two lions supporting the heraldry on both sides; A pair of silver plates with sickles. " Robert passed on these heraldic accessories according to his father's wishes. The Hahnge Ford family is arrogant and enjoys exclusive privileges, which makes sense, but they are in a turbulent era. In the records of that era, we learned that in an uprising in 1400, the rebels captured many servants of King Henry VIII alive, and they forced worster to "grab the king's collar with the king's knights, worth 20 pounds", which is not a small sum today. Worster's luck gradually changed. 14 18 was granted the noble status of Normandy Homet in June. As a reward, he got a spear tied with a fox's tail. This is the heraldic flag of Henry VIII. However, the wealth of the Hungerford family was the spoils of the French war, so they used the money to bail Robert, the grandson of Vostel, who was captured in the Geoffrey Castillion War of 1453, ending the Hundred Years' War between Britain and France, and finally the British army was defeated. Chester, a member of the delegation, was sent to France to deal with Robert's prisoners and perform the duties of heraldry officer. During heraldry and the eternal hundred-year war, the hungry had to face many difficulties, such as the Black Death and dystocia death. At that time, their rights in the west of England reached their peak. Besides death, there is also the pain of purgatory. Their souls are bound in God's waiting room, waiting for their families to pray for good deeds and their right to enter heaven. Here, the coat of arms also played a certain role. The Ford family in Hahnge, like other nobles, provides a prayer church, which is a small church. Hiring priests to sing or do mass for them often involves the decoration of the church and the priests who serve them. I probably hope that if God looks down in the sky, he will see the weapons and flags of aristocratic families and be grateful to them. Anyway, it was worster's idea. He gave the monastery a velvet robe decorated with wavy patterns and two gold satin robes. This behavior was inherited by worster's daughter-in-law Margaret Botero. According to the literature, she left two vestments with red and green cross (the uniform color of Hahnge Foz) and two new vestments of Hahnge Foz, Beaumont and botero. At Salisbury Abbey, Margaret left several crowns and hungry arms for vestments. Even the chapel is the same as the Ford family chapel in Hahnge, with the same color and family uniform. Across the Salisbury Plain, across the border to Samoset and Gloucester, the name of the Hahnge Ford family has spread to a large area in the west. Whenever they get land and pray for their souls, they always express their wishes through heraldry. Even if they finally enter the Elysium, they will engrave heraldry on the coffin. The Hahnge Ford family is inseparable from heraldry, just like decorating the family shield on the board of Farley Castle. This family is very famous in the west, and other aristocratic families have followed suit. /kloc-In the 8th century, when the Fords family in Hahnge left the plain, Pleidell-Bouveris chose the Vostel Chapel attached to Salisbury Church as his own venue, decorated with more than 50 heraldic shields, and recorded the married life and descendants of the Fords family in Hahnge.
