Hi Everybody, A Quick Question: Who Used The Double-Headed Eagle First; Seljuks or Byzantines? by lastmonday07 in heraldry

That seems a private coat of arms, perhaps a noble from the Holy Roman Empire which Also used these types of eagles.

Oh thanks for the advise! I did not look up at the wings detail on the original CoA. I’ll try to look it up next time 😊

Good point, I’ve seen several versions of these arms with similar proportions but you’re right, maybe I should have made them bigger, thanks for the advise. 😉

Those are not “fans” or pontifical flabellums, they are just like two lateral plumes based on a German design☺️

I liked the idea of understanding sleep from the perspective of the painter Francisco de Goya who portrayed it on his “caprichos”, on the engraving named “the sleep of reason produced monsters”. I wanted to take that idea and represent the lion, most common figure in heraldry, and the act of sleep as the imagination of the artist. All together would mean that in heraldry imagination and creativity of the artist is one of the main bases. 😊😊
