COAT OF ARMS, ARCHBISHOP JUXON
COAT OF ARMS, ARCHBISHOP JUXON
The coat of Arms of Archbishop William Juxon (1582-1663). The four 'Moorish' heads could possibly be a reference to an earlier involvment by his family in the Crusades. The Great Hall at Lambeth Palace was rebuilt by Juxon from 1661-63 and includes, atop high shelves, two carved wooden portrait busts of young black men, a reference to his arms. These are the earliest representation of a black person in Lambeth.
From a bound volume of watercolours by Joseph Jones entitled, 'Monumental Inscriptions, Arms & Co: in the Church & Churchyard of St Mary in Lambeth'. An introductory note states that, 'These things were gather'd whilst the work was doing at Palace of the Archbishop of Canterbury 1749' and signed Jo.Jones.
