Summary
[edit]DescriptionClement OfIghtham Arms (Bordure OrAndAzure).svg |
English: Arms of Richard Clement (d.1538) of Ightham, Kent: Argent, two bendlets wavy sable on a chief gules three leopard's faces or a bordure compony or and azure, tincture of bordure as seen on his monumental brass in Ightham Church, and as drawn by Sir Thomas Wriothesley(d.1534), Garter King of Arms, in his Scene at the death of King Henry VII at Richmond Palace, 1509. (British Library Additional MS 45131, folio 54. (From www.bl.uk/onlinegallery)). Sir Thomas Wriothesley(d.1534), Garter King of Arms, a courtier who though not present on the day, shortly thereafter wrote an account of the proceedings, from discussions with those present. Clement was a Gentleman of the Household to King Henry VII. Born in East Sussex; pre-1520 he purchased Ightham Mote in Kent, where he performed much building work, including stained glass windows and painted ceiling in the guest suite.[1]. His monumental brass [2] survives in Ightham Church, with unusual depiction of his arms upright but in an inverted shield, to denote his death (usually whole image was inverted to denote death, as for example frequently painted by Matthew Paris). Wavy lines depicted more like nebuly lines in brass, and in depiction of Henry VII's deathbed scene, where he was present, see .
The bordure is blazoned as compony argent and azure in Burke's General Armory, 1884, p.202[3]. However this seems unlikely as this would be w:Lèse-majesté, compony argent and azure being well known as the bordure of the House of Beaufort, adopted by the ancestors of Lady Margaret Beaufort, mother of King Henry VII. (Bordure adopted for arms of Beaufort, legitimised progeny of John of Gaunt, 3rd surviving son of King Edward III: Royal arms of King Edward III within a bordure compony argent and azure) |
