Azure, two chevronels Argent between in chief two mullets of six points Or, and in base a Scots pine eradicated proper.

Coat of arms depicted by me, illuminated with lights and shadows, contoured in Sable, with a pointed outer contour and with a texturized finish.

G0066, Chief Herald of Arms of Malta's grant of Andrea Pompili's arms, whose coat of arms has been emblazoned by me. The hand-drawn tree shown in this photograph was originally created for the coat of arms of Andrea Pompili, commissioned by Dr Charles A. Gauci, Chief Herald of Arms of Malta. Some time later, an art collector asked me for a dedicated hand drawing. I chose this tree because its canopy has a distinctive heraldic shape, setting it apart from the other drawings in his collection, as it was specifically designed to fit beneath the two chevronels. This is also the reason for the handwritten note «under a chevron» beside the drawing. Before sending it, I inscribed the sheet with a dedication, which explains the handwritten text visible alongside the artwork.
