Book excerpt: "Fictitious and Symbolic Creatures in Art- With Special Reference to their Use in British Heraldry" was written by British author John Vinycomb as a survey of creatures that appear on British coats of arms and other heraldic items. Vinycomb's work is a detailed examination of the origins and history of fictitious and symbolic creatures that appear in English heraldry. The book opens with a detailed introduction from the author, in which he explains the inspiration behind this work and the methods he has followed in compiling this collection. From there, the author's survey begins in earnest. The classic symbolic creatures are discussed in detail, including dragons, the Pegasus, gryphons, unicorns, mermaids, the heraldic pelican, and many more. In all, more than sixty different creatures are profiled. Detailed illustrations accompany the text, and assist the reader in contextualizing the information presented. "Fictitious and Symbolic Creatures in Art" is a fascinating book for those interested in British heraldry. Vinycomb's work is well researched and equally well presented, his findings are revelatory and honest. The illustrations are well done and representative of what you would expect to find on a coat of arms. For those interested in the subject matter, John Vinycomb's "Fictitious and Symbolic Creatures in Art" is a must read. Interesting and insightful, the book is a worthy addition to anyone's personal library. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Enjoy this classic work today. These selected paragraphs distill the contents and give you a quick look inside Fictitious & Symbolic Creatures in Art - With Special Reference to Their Use in British Heraldry: Look inside the book: As these unreal beings are constantly met with in symbolic art, of which heraldry is the chief exponent, it may be assumed that they have been Pg viadopted in each case with some obvious or latent meaning, as in the case of real animals; they may, therefore, equally lay claim to our consideration as emblems or types, more especially as less attention has been devoted to them and the delineation of their forms by competent artists. ...(2) Animals purely heraldic, such as the heraldic tiger, panther incensed, heraldic antelope, &c., owe their origin and significance to other ideas, and must be accounted for on other grounds, namely, the mistaken ideas resulting from imperfect knowledge of these objects in natural history by early writers and herald painters, to whom they were no doubt real animals with natural qualities, and, as such, according to their knowledge, they depicted them; and although more light has been thrown upon the study of natural history since their time, and many of their conceptions have been proved to be erroneous, the well-known heraldic shapes of many of these lusus naturæ are still retained in modern armory. ...Heraldic art thus stamps a peculiar note of dignity for some particular respect in the emblematic figures it accepts, as for some special use, quality or action in the thing depicted; and this dignity or nobility may have a twofold relation, one betwixt creatures of divers kinds, as a lion or a stag, a wolf and a lamb; the other between beings of one and the same kind, according to their various attitudes or positions in which they may be represented, as a stag courant or at speed, and a stag lodged or at bay; a lion rampant and a lion coward—one will keep the field, the other seek safety in flight, just as one attitude conveys a different signification from another.
