The coat of arms is supported by tow flying genii. The charges are a fesse; some that possibly is a leaf or a hand, a ram’s head or a bucranion in base. The genius at left blows a trumpet; the genius at right is in profile; she supports the escutcheon with both hands. Below are clouds with part of a third genius carrying something. At the lower edge remnants of “Del”.
