English, circa 1905
Heraldry has been described as 'the shorthand of history' and the perceived beauty and pageantry of heraldic designs has allowed them to survive the gradual abandonment of armour on the battlefield. Latterly, individuals, universities, public and private organizations, corporations, cities, towns, and regions use heraldry to symbolize their heritage, achievements and aspirations.
