Arms from Literature and Attributed Arms

Heraldic Devices from Bodleian Manuscript 264, by Coblaith Mhuimhneach.
This article extracts the emblazons from a mid-14th-century manuscript and provides blazons. Not all of the arms belong to real people, but this is an excellent place to look at medieval depictions of charges.
