Descripção das armas reaes de Portugal : dos brazões das cidades e das principaes villas do Reino, e explicação das insignias d'algumas d'ellas
A Portuguese heraldry treatise published in Lisbon in 1800 by Henrique Luiz Feijó da Costa, describing the royal arms of Portugal and the coats of arms of the kingdom's cities and principal towns for readers interested in heraldic insignia. The single picture is a woodcut-style coat of arms with a crown, ribbon mantling and the Portuguese shield of five blue escutcheons, which a designer could take as a model for dense, symmetrical state emblem composition with ornate scrollwork and crowned crests.
