A coat of arms with three dark bird-like objects within. An armor-clad arm grasping a sword is above, and mantling, flowers, and leaves surrounds the crest. A nude cherub wearing a winged helmet and holding aloft a caduceus in his right hand stands among some books, scrolls, and a quill pen with inkwell.
A large urn with a snake circling the top, and a pinecone at the top. Hanging from it is a large coat of arms. Around the urn is a tropical beach scene with palm trees and sailing vessels in the background.
