One of the most famous heraldists in France in the mid 20th century was Robert Louis. He designed a large number of arms, but he was famous for his heraldic art of French historical regions, towns and provinces. He wrote a number of books on the different arms of towns in several départements, most French heraldic stamps were based on his drawings and a large number of postcards have been issued. | One of the most famous heraldists in France in the mid 20th century was Robert Louis.
