Initial pages of the Ingeram Codex, by Hans Ingeram, from 1459

Hans Ingeram, «Ingeram Codex», 142 pages, 1459.


The first owner of this armorial was Archduke Albert VI of Austria. Hans Ingeram included in each page of his book from 1 to 6 coats of arms, he dedicated the initial part to the Habsburg coats of arms, to imaginary coats of arms and to the coats of arms of European kingdoms, generally using 4 coats of arms per page, and dedicated the final 2/3 of its content to depicting 6 coats of arms per page of the lower German nobility, especially nobles belonging to a special type of «associations» whose purpose was the organization of tournaments. A monograph on this armorial can be consulted in [Becher, C.; Gamber, O.; 1986].

Banner Quarterly: 1 and 4 Azure, three fleurs de lis Or; 2 and 3 Gules, three lions, passant, guardant, in pale Or, armed and langued Azure.

Pendón cuartelado: 1o y 4o de azur, tres flores de lis de oro; 2o y 3o de gules, tres leopardos en palo de oro, armados y lampasados de azur.

Banner interpreted by me as follows: with the proportions of 5x6, like a shield; the field is coloured in flat tinctures Gules and Azure; the fleurs-de-lis and the leopards are outlined in Sable and illuminated in Or; and the banner’s finish resembles fabric.

Its design follows [Edward IV of England; 1461; row 27, 2nd column, final banner]:

  • which represents what are considered «the royal arms of England»,
  • which were also borne by Henry V of England,
  • which Henry VI of England placed in the 2nd quarter of a per pale shield, where he set those of France in the 1st, and
  • which were restored by Henry IV, as shown here.

Style keywords: Rectangular, Illuminated, Outlined in sable and Fabric.

Banner quarterly of sixteen: 1, 6, 11, and 16 Azure, three fleurs de lis Or; 2, 5, 12, and 15 Gules, three lions, passant, guardant, in pale Or, armed and langued Azure; 3, 8, 9, and 14 Gules, a castle triple towered Or, port and windows Azure, masoned Sable; 4, 7, 10, and 13 Argent, a lion rampant Purpure, armed and langued Gules, crowned Or.

Pendón cuartelado de dieciseis: 1o, 6o, 11o y 16o de azur, tres flores de lis de oro; 2o, 5o, 12o y 15o de gules, tres leopardos en palo de oro, armados y lampasados de azur; 3o, 8o, 9o y 14o de gules, un castillo de oro, aclarado de azur, mazonado de sable; 4o, 7o, 10o y 13o de plata, un león rampante de púrpura, armado y lampasado de gules, coronado de oro.

Banner interpreted by me as follows: its shape preserves the 5x6 proportions of a shield; the field is enamelled with flat tinctures Gules and Azure; the castles, fleurs-de-lis, and leopards are outlined in Sable; but the lions are outlined in their field; and the finish of the banner is watercoloured.

I have interpreted it from a simplification of the banner appearing in [Edward IV of England; 1461; row 27, 1st column, final banner], which reflects Edward IV’s aspirations to the throne of Castile and León. In that armorial, this banner is held by a «White Lion of March», which was the personal badge of Edward IV.
