Description
Introducing 'Roll of Arms' collection by Serge Averbukh, showcasing new media artwork featuring historical arms from various times and places, meticulously restored and transformed into gorgeous large format art prints. Here you will find fine art pieces featuring King of France Coat of Arms from Livro do Armeiro-Mor, a Portuguese official roll from 1509, compiled by Joao do Cro, Portugal King of Arms. It includes almost 400 real and imaginary coats of arms, including those of the Nine Worthies, of the states of Europe, Africa and Asia, of the electors of the Holy Roman Emperor, of the pairs of France, of members of the Portuguese Royal Family and of the other noble families of Portugal.
This coat of arms belonged to Louis XII of France. Louis XII (27 June 1462 - 1 January 1515) was a monarch of the House of Valois who ruled as King of France from 1498 to 1515 and King of Naples from 1501 to 1504. The son of Charles, Duke of Orleans, and Maria of Cleves, he succeeded his cousin Charles VIII, who died without a closer heir in 1498. Before his accession to the throne of France, he was known as Louis of Orleans and was compelled to be married to his handicapped and sterile cousin Joan by his uncle, king Louis XI. By doing so, Louis XI hoped to extinguish the Orleans cadet branch of the House of Valois.
