'Lion Rampant' Ring (#634)

' Lion Rampant ' Ring

A " lion rampant " is depicted in profile standing erect with forepaws raised.

As many attitudes (positions) now exist in heraldry as the heraldist's imagination can conjure, as a result of the ever-increasing need for differentiation, but very few of these were apparently known to medieval heralds.

One distinction commonly made (especially among French heralds), although it may be of limited importance, is the distinction of lions in the walking positions as leopards.
