This painting shows a coat of arms with a red and white striped shield, topped by a dark banner with a fleur-de-lis. Above the shield, a winged cherub looks down. The background is dark, with a pattern of dots and a decorative border. The coat of arms is the central focus of the painting. The artist's use of color and composition draws the viewer's eye to the shield and the cherub above it. This painting is part of a larger work held at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
