Summary
edit
| Description |
English: The Queen's Beasts are ten heraldic statues representing the genealogy of Queen Elizabeth II, depicted as the Royal supporters of England.
The White Lion of Mortimer descends to the Queen through Edward IV, from Anne de Mortimer. The shield shows a white rose encircled by a golden sun, known heraldically as a ‘white rose en soleil’ which is really a combination of two distinct badges. Both of these appear on the Great Seals of Edward IV and Richard III, and were used by George VI when Duke of York. Unlike the Lion of England, this beast is uncrowned.
Italiano: Le Bestie della regina (Queen's Beasts) sono dieci statue araldiche che rappresentano la genealogia della regina Elisabetta II, raffigurano i supporti reali dell'Inghilterra.
Il Leone Bianco di Mortimer discende alla Regina attraverso Edoardo IV, da Anne de Mortimer. Lo scudo mostra una rosa bianca circondata da un sole dorato, conosciuta araldica come "rosa bianca en soleil" che è in realtà una combinazione di due distintivi distintivi. Entrambi questi appaiono sui Grandi Sigilli di Edoardo IV e Riccardo III, e furono usati da Giorgio VI quando era Duca di York. A differenza del Leone d'Inghilterra, questa bestia non è coronata. |
