"I believe that heraldry has an artistic dignity of its own.
Often, it perfectly blends the graphic charm with aesthetic of great painting.
I am convinced that if Picasso, Modigliani, de Lempicka had known this kind of art
we would have perhaps seen the flowering of a new artistic movement,
maybe called "emblemism" more than "heraldism".
