"Heraldry for Craftsmen & Designers" by Sir W. H. St. John Hope is a technical handbook written in the early 20th century. This work focuses on the principles, practices, and applications of heraldry, specifically aimed at designers and craftspeople who wish to incorporate heraldic concepts into their own artistic endeavors. The book aims to demystify heraldic art, making it accessible and relevant for modern applications. The opening of the book sets the stage for a comprehensive exploration of heraldry, identifying its common misunderstandings among artists and craftsmen. Sir W. H. St. John Hope expresses concern over the disconnection between artistic representation and the historical roots of heraldry, which often leads to inaccuracies in modern interpretations. He stresses the importance of understanding the original principles and applications of heraldry to enhance both artistic creation and craftsmanship. The discussion emphasizes the need for designers to use historical sources of inspiration to inform their work, thereby promoting a better appreciation and application of heraldic art in contemporary practices.
