The coat of arms of Napoleonic Italy was the coat of arms used by the Kingdom of Italy (1805–1814) during the reign of Napoleon as King of Italy.[1]
Description
The arms displayed on the heraldic shield are tierced per pale (three vertical divisions of equal width):[2]
- First pale: the upper portion shows a papal ombrellino with the keys of Saint Peter (for the Duchy of Parma), while the lower portion shows the white eagle of the House of Este (for the Duchy of Modena).
- Second pale: a silver pale charged with the blue Milanese serpent of the House of Visconti (for the Duchy of Milan).
- Third pale: the upper portion shows the lion of Saint Mark with a red cap on its head (for Veneto), while the lower portion shows the altered arms of Bologna,[3] charged with a silver tower (for Rovigo and Feltre).
- Inescutcheon: the heraldic shield is charged with a gold inescutcheon displaying an iron crown with six points (representing the Iron Crown of Lombardy) inside a red border with eight silver rings (for Lombardy).[4]
The heraldic shield is encircled by the gold collar of the Légion d'honneur and superimposed on a Napoleonic eagle wielding a thunderbolt. Above the imperial eagle rises a Napoleonic star. The eagle is surrounded by a green mantle that is lined with ermine and surmounted by a royal crown in gold.[5]
