The Royal Coat of Arms. The royal Coat of Arms has evolved over 9 centuries. Lions had previously been used by the Norman dynasty as royal emblem. Henry 2 is thought to have used a coat with two Lions on it. His children experimented with different combinations of lions. Richard the Lion Heart used at first a single lion rampant on the red field. Later 3 golden lions passant guardant appeared in his Great Seal of England (1198) as a powerful symbol of English Throne and thus established the lasting design of the Royal Arms of England.

Trafalgar Square has always been one of the most visited places in London. In 1843 the 44-metre-high column with the statue of Admiral Nelson was raised to honor of the hero of Trafalgar battle. The four lions surrounding Admiral Nelson column appeared in Trafalgar Square later. Their sculptor is Edwin Landseer. The lions are six-metre-long and 6-metre-high. The sculptures of the lions were cast from French cannons. It is amazing that the sculptor has never seen a lion. He used his dog and a cat as the models for the statues. That’s why the lion has his tongue out much like a dog. Bronze lions in Trafalgar Square
