Heraldry

...is the fusion of fact and fancy, myth and manner, romance and reality. It is an exuberant union of family, art, and history. (Burnett and Dennis, The Lion Rejoicing, 1997) ♦️ An ongoing curation of heraldic design and medieval illumination.

Paris, BnF, ms. fr. 5230 The Bellenville armorial dates from the late 14th century. Author and commissioner are unknown, but the text is written in Dutch, therefore it was probably made somewhere in the historical Netherlands. The armorial consists of two parts. The first part contains coats of arms of European nobles structured by lords. The second part seems to be a collection of occasional rolls of arms of tournaments, military campaigns or the Prussian voyages.
