Coat of arms of His Majesty King Charles III emblazoned by me. The Tudor Crown, or 16^th-century Imperial State Crown, has been the motif chosen by King Charles III for his visual identity. This crown is distinguished by its four ascending arches, three visible, which rise from a circular base decorated with four cross patty, three visible, alternating with four fleurs de lis, two visible. The arches, adorned with pearls, join at the center to support an orb, a cross on a world. The cloth cap inside is traditionally represented in Gules. And the base is lined with ermine. The way to distinguish the Tudor Crown from Saint Edward Crown is that Saint Edward Crown has depressed arches and its cap or inner lining is traditionally represented in Purple. Charles III's choice revives the heraldic version used by his grandfather and great-grandfather, marking a preference for a symbol of the 16^th-century monarchy.

Supporters with human forms from the city of Ubeda

Selection of photos of supporters with human forms from the city of Ubeda, Jaen, Andalusia.

In international heraldry groups, I often notice that tenantes are discussed almost as a heraldic rarity, something very uncommon, reserved only for certain types of corporations or high-ranking individuals. This can be seen, for example, in phrases like «tenant is not a heraldic term, whereas supporter is» or humorous expressions such as «I do have tenants, they pay me rent» or «our tenants living on our land and who pay us rent do not wear our badges».

Therefore, to spread the idea that tenantes are not uncommon in Castilian heraldry, I thought a good image would be worth a thousand words. So, I created a montage of images from Úbeda alone and published it with the phrase «This is a selection of tenants photos from only one single city, Úbeda, Jaén, Andalusia», and I am sure that there are even more tenantes in Úbeda.
