Summary[edit]
DescriptionDynhamTapestryMMANewYork.JPG | Tapestry, post 1497, showing heraldry of John Dynham, 1st Baron Dynham (d.1501), Knight of the Garter. The shields are circumscribed by the Garter. He was born at Nutwell in South Devon, the eldest son and heir of Sir John Dinham (1406–1458) of Nutwell and Hartland, by his wife Joan Arches (died 1497), sister and heiress of John Arches and daughter of Sir Richard Arches (died 1417), a Member of Parliament for Buckinghamshire in 1402, of Eythrope, Cranwell (both in the parish of Waddesdon) and Little Kimble, Buckinghamshire. Very faded, the red field has faded completely. Arms of Dynham impaling Arches, of Arches Manor, East Hendred, Berkshire. Metropolitan Museum, New York, Cloisters Collection, ref: 60.127.1. Catalogue entry: John, Lord Dynham was a naval commander under five kings and treasurer of England from 1486 to 1501. The inscription around the garter is the motto of the Order of the Garter, to which Lord Dynham was appointed in 1487. The tapestry was probably woven to commemorate this event. The supporters in the form of stags -- or harts -- refer to Lord Dynham's family seat, Hartland, in North Devon. The repeated device of the topcastle of a warship with javelins leaning against the railing and swallow-tailed pennants flying above refers to Lord Dynham's distinguished naval career. |
