Can you tell me the origin of this painting? It's better to elaborate. Thank you.

The coat of arms of the Queen of Scotland! ! !

The coat of arms of the Queen of England is a golden lion with a crown. The Golden Lion is England, and it should be changed when it arrives in Scotland. Now the topmost ornament is a Scottish red lion with a crown. The Scottish red lion also held a sword and a water pole and played a banner slogan of "In Defens", which is the abbreviation of "In My Defens God Me Defend". This inscription is a bit strange, and I always feel that it is misplaced. It should have been placed on the coat of arms of the Queen of England, because since the Reformation, British monarchs have been entitled as "guardians of faith", and the origin of this title is also full of British humor, which will be mentioned later. I don't know why this sentence didn't appear on the coat of arms of the Queen of England. Instead, the Scottish red lion was asked to carry this slogan.

The inscription on the scroll of the base is Nemo Me Impaune Lacesit (no one can disturb me justly, and anyone who hurts me will be punished).

England is a very aggressive country in history, while Scotland is relatively peaceful and kind, and has not brought much trouble to other countries. However, on the contrary, the coat of arms of Scotland is extremely aggressive, while the coat of arms of England is gentle, humble and frugal, which is also considered as "superficial coat of arms".

You may have a question, what seems to be missing in these two heraldry. Yes, there is one thing missing: Wales. England, Scotland and Ireland have arms, but Wales doesn't.

The reason is that the level of Wales is not enough to predict. Everyone says that the British Isles are England, Scotland and Wales, but it's actually a little different. Now Queen Elizabeth is the head of the Commonwealth, the queen of Britain, the queen of England, the queen of Scotland and so on, and there are countless titles, so there is no Wales. Because England and Scotland are kingdoms and Wales is only a principality.

And the problem is not only that Wales is a principality, but also that Elizabeth II is not only the "queen", but also the Duke of Lancaster and the Duke of Normandy. But the Queen is not the Grand Duke of Wales. Britain has a new tradition since 130 1. The eldest son of the British monarch is the Duke of Wales. There is a legend about this tradition. Edward I of England, King of England, in order to appease the rebellious Welsh, promised to give them an archduke who was born in Wales and certainly could not speak English. When the Welsh accepted this condition, Edward I of England of England took out the newborn prince and stunned the Welsh. This baby is the later Edward II. There is no way to verify the truth of this legend, but Edward II was born in carnarvon, Wales. Now the Duke of Wales is Prince Charles. This is why Wales did not appear on the arms of British monarchs in previous dynasties.

The eldest son of the British monarch is the Grand Duke of Wales, but there are exceptions. Edward VI of England, the eldest son of Henry VIII, never got the title. He was only ten years old when he acceded to the throne, not to be fooled.
