Canting heraldic badge of Leo Galeatus (Latin) Leone Galeato (Italian) ("helmed lion"). Badge of w:Galeazzo II Visconti (c.1320-1378). leone galeato con secchi. First adopted by Galeazzo II Visconti (1354), who had to spend about a decade in exile in Savoy. As seen on coins. It may be interpreted as: 'Fury will be repressed by reason as long as fate demands'. The motto was often placed in a foreign language to make it seem even more puzzling. A ragged staff with two buckets were added later to this impresa. Galeazzo Maria Sforza simply took over the 'impresa' of a predecessor of the same name. (Source: www.coingallery.de [1]). A lion sejant wearing a closed helm garnished or with crest and mantling atop barry sable and azure, with ostrich feather atop, seated in flames, holding a ragged staff from the top of which hang two buckets on a string. Motto inscribed on lion's crest: Hic Hof. Illuminated page by Cristoforo de Predis from the New Testament Codex, varia 124, Italy 1475 (Biblioteca Reale, Torino) ). Inscribed: "G(ALEAZ)Z(O) MA(RIA) DUX M(EDIO)L(AN)I QUINTUS" ("Galeazzo Maria, 5th Duke of Milan"). w:Galeazzo Maria Sforza (1444-1476), 5th Duke of Milan from 1466 until 1476. Emblema tipico è l’impresa “del leone galeato”, nato con Galeazzo II Visconti (1310- 1378), ripreso dai successori sforzeschi, tra cui Galeazzo Maria Sforza (1444-1476) che lo predilesse, anche per l’assonanza che ne richiamava il nome (CAMBIN, Le rotelle, alla voce “leone galeato”: p. 441, f. 236, 237 e 255) ([2]) Text from: Le “imprese” Visconti-Sforza, di Franca Guerreri, La storia di una famiglia regnante vista attraverso gli stemmi personali dei suoi membri, a cura di Adriano Bernareggi, Capitolo III[3]
