In heraldry, an attitude is the position in which a mammal, bird, fish, human or human-like being is emblazoned as a charge, supporter or crest. It always precedes any reference to the tincture of that being or its various parts. Many attitudes apply only to predatory beasts and are exemplified by the beast most frequently found in heraldry—the heraldic lion. Some other terms apply only to docile animals, such as the doe (usually blazoned as "hind"). Other attitudes, such as volant, describe the positions of birds, mostly exemplified by the bird most frequently found in heraldry—the heraldic eagle. The term naiant (swimming) is usually reserved for fish but may also apply to swans, ducks or geese. Birds are often further described by the position of their wings. The term segreant is usuall

  • In heraldry, an attitude is the position in which a mammal, bird, fish, human or human-like being is emblazoned as a charge, supporter or crest. It always precedes any reference to the tincture of that being or its various parts. Many attitudes apply only to predatory beasts and are exemplified by the beast most frequently found in heraldry—the heraldic lion. Some other terms apply only to docile animals, such as the doe (usually blazoned as "hind"). Other attitudes, such as volant, describe the positions of birds, mostly exemplified by the bird most frequently found in heraldry—the heraldic eagle. The term naiant (swimming) is usually reserved for fish but may also apply to swans, ducks or geese. Birds are often further described by the position of their wings. The term segreant is usually applied to the griffin, but this approximation of rampant which is more appropriate for them has also been applied to the dragon. Additionally, there are positions applying to direction of the head, to indicate variations from the presumed position of a given charge: animals and animal-like creatures are presumed to be shown in profile, facing dexter (the viewer's left), and humans and human-like beings are presumed to be shown affronté (facing the viewer), but the blazon may specify all other possibilities.

  • En Heráldica, una postura, también llamada en algunos casos actitud, es la posición en la cual un animal, una bestia ficticia, un engendro mitológico, un humano o un humanoide es blasonado como una figura, un soporte o una cimera. Muchas posturas tan solo se aplican a bestias depredadoras y son ejemplificados por la bestia más encontrada frecuentemente en la heráldica —el león. Otros términos se aplican a animales dóciles, como el ciervo. Otras posturas describen la posición de un ave, que suele ser ejemplificado por el ave que aparece más en los escudos — el águila. El término francés naiant (nadando), sin embargo, se reserva principalmente para peces, pero también se puede aplicar a los cisnes, patos o gansos. Las aves se describen a menudo por la posición exacta de sus alas. El término segreant aparentemente está reservado para criaturas mitológicas, ya que este término es la aproximación de rampant (rampante) que se aplica a los cuadrúpedos alados como grifos y dragones.

  • Gli attributi araldici di azione sono quelli che definiscono la posizione assunta, per effetto di una specifica azione, da una figura che compare in uno stemma. La figura è generalmente un essere animato o una pianta. In alcuni casi la figura, abitualmente un animale, è rappresentata in una particolare postura, definita posizione araldica ordinaria che non viene blasonata, in quanto sottintesa; esempi ne sono il leone (rappresentato rivolto a destra e in posizione rampante), il leopardo (rivolto a destra, con la testa in maestà e passante), l'aquila (di fronte, con la testa rivolta a destra, le ali spiegate in alto e le zampe divaricate), il rovere (con i rami incrociati in decusse), ecc.
