Heraldic shield. Oil on canvas. TORRES, A. Spanish School, 1856. Signed and dated. This work shows a heraldic shield on a blue background with different shades, on an oval framed support. The central (and only) element of the composition consists of a crest with a helmet with gold bars and four feathers, and a quartered shield. Towards the lower right area, there is a signature (A. Torres) and a date (1856). First quarter, cut, with a bird (possibly a sable eagle) with wings displayed and spread over gold, and, below, in green, a gold band crossed between the mouths of two azure serpents (recalling the well-known “band of Castile”), on gules. In the second quarter, twelve eight-pointed gold stars in three columns, on a divided field in sable and silver. In the third, on gules, gold chains around three crossed gold bands. In the fourth, six gold crescents on azure. Around both elements, and joining them, there is a symmetrical composition of architectural elements, plants and scrolls, with a clear classicist influence and with some reminiscence of works from the Spanish Renaissance.
