Omschrijving

A Manual of Heraldry: Historical and Popular is a comprehensive guide to the art and science of heraldry, written by Charles Boutell and first published in 1863. The book covers the history and evolution of heraldry, as well as its practical applications in the design and interpretation of coats of arms, crests, and other heraldic devices. Boutell begins by tracing the origins of heraldry to medieval Europe, where knights and nobles used coats of arms to identify themselves on the battlefield and in courtly settings. He then delves into the complex symbolism and meaning behind the various elements of a coat of arms, including colors, animals, and other motifs. The book also includes detailed instructions for creating and designing coats of arms, as well as guidelines for their proper use and display. Boutell provides numerous examples of heraldic devices from throughout history, including those of famous families and institutions. Overall, A Manual of Heraldry is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history and art of heraldry, whether as a hobbyist or a professional designer. Its clear and concise explanations, accompanied by numerous illustrations and examples, make it a valuable reference for scholars, historians, and enthusiasts alike.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
