The arms of [Richard, Duke of York](https://www.worldhistory.org/Richard_Duke_of_York/) (l. 1411-1460 CE). Richard, the 3rd Duke of York, was a great-grandson of [Edward III of England](https://www.worldhistory.org/Edward_III_of_England/) (r. 1327-1377 CE), hence his use of the royal arms (lions and fleur-de-lis).
