Summary
 | This image needs to have its border removed. Where borders are desired they should be added with wikimarkup or code.
NOTE: Engravings, etchings, photogravures, or any image where information would be lost, or the frame is integral part of the original postcard, document etc., DO NOT NEED their borders cropped; a cropped image of this type generally will violate the original artistic intent of the image, which includes the paper surrounding it. Especially images with {{Border is intentional}} should be not overwritten. If it is desirable to have a cropped version for specific uses, this should be uploaded as a separate file, and linked back to the original. This can be requested by using {{Extract image}} instead. If the file is a photo of an artwork in perspective and with context (a physical frame, a place where the work is located etc.), use {{Extract image}} for request for a detailed image or a flat copy. Any text from the border should be included in the image description. If the border contains author and license information, this may also be embedded in the file itself and the tag, {{Metadata from image}}, should be added. If cropping a JPEG, it is generally preferable to use a lossless cropping tool. You can use CropTool on this file, which supports lossless cropping (more info). Other available tools include Cropbot and jpegtran. For more help, see Commons:Media for cleanup. |  |
| Description |
English: Completely imaginary arms of Sir George Warleggan from the Poldark novels. George was always trying to fit in with the traditional Cornish gentry, so his arms show ever possible charge to show George's status: the W for Warleggan to show his status as a self made man, and then every traditional charge from Cornish Heraldry the eagle and fleur-de-lis, the rose, the Cornish Clough, the bezants (particularly significant for a banker), and the portcullis signifying someone who has served as an . This overloaded heraldry is typical of the early 19th century, see for example the arms of the Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars Naval heroes, such as Admiral Nelson. |
