As we mentioned before, this company has had several designations over its centuries in activity. Its historical path is also evident in the logo it bears. Which, in addition to the aforementioned Royal Arms, also includes the figure of Santa Marta, the Dragon and the sentence \u201cProvidencia Regitur\u201d. All of these components will be presented and explained individually, over the next few weeks. Let\u2019s then explore the symbolism and meaning of the Royal Arms, the prime element in the Company\u2019s graphic identity. <em>\u201cProvidencia Regitur\u201d<\/em>. Todos estes componentes ser\u00e3o apresentados e explicados individualmente, ao longo das pr\u00f3ximas semanas. De seguida exploramos ent\u00e3o, o simbolismo e significado das Armas R\u00e9gias, elemento basilar na identidade gr\u00e1fica da Companhia:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Symbolising Portugal\u2019s identity as a nation, the royal arms represent the authority of the King and the State (which then were virtually one and the same) over the Company. It must be remembered that the creation of the Company was due to the direct initiative of the king and for many decades the institution was a chartered company. The five shields in the centre represent Christ\u2019s stigmata and symbolise the gratitude of King D. Afonso Henriques for the divine aid received during his battles for the conquest of Portugal. According to non-historiographical tradition but corroborated by successive chroniclers, the seven surrounding castles symbolise the fortresses seized from the Moors in Algarve during the reign of King D. Afonso III. The crown at the top, introduced by King D. Manuel I in 1495, manifests royal authority and the centralisation of the State.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Celebrating Carnival today, we offer the template of a mask with the Company\u2019s logo, for colouring (two sizes). We invite the whole family to participate and colour this mask identifying all the colours correctly. Have a great Carnival!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"708\" height=\"501\" src=\"https:\/\/rcv-dev.wp.targx.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-2.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8697\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rcv-dev.wp.targx.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-2.jpeg 708w, https:\/\/rcv-dev.wp.targx.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-2-300x212.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/rcv-dev.wp.targx.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-2-18x12.jpeg 18w, https:\/\/rcv-dev.wp.targx.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-2-345x245.jpeg 345w, https:\/\/rcv-dev.wp.targx.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-2-415x294.jpeg 415w, https:\/\/rcv-dev.wp.targx.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-2-650x460.jpeg 650w, https:\/\/rcv-dev.wp.targx.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-2-250x177.jpeg 250w, https:\/\/rcv-dev.wp.targx.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-2-600x425.jpeg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 708px) 100vw, 708px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/museurealcompanhiavelha.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Mscara-Criana.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Children\u2019s Mask<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/museurealcompanhiavelha.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Mscara-Adulto.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Adult\u2019s Mask<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To download the pdf with the image, click on the figure\u2019s name (Adult\u2019s Mask or Children\u2019s Mask).
