Heraldic Visitation
Heraldic visitations were tours of inspection undertaken by Kings of Arms (or alternatively by heralds, or junior officers of arms, acting as their deputies) throughout England, Wales and Ireland. Their purpose was to register and regulate the coats of arms of nobility, gentry and boroughs, and to record pedigrees. They took place from 1530 to 1688, and their records (akin to an upper class census) provide important source material for historians and genealogists. Visitations in England Process of visitations By the fifteenth century, the use and abuse of coats of arms was becoming widespread in England. One of the duties conferred on William Bruges (or Brydges), the first Garter Principal King of Arms, was to survey and record the armorial bearings and pedigrees of those using coats of arms and correct irregularities.

Visitation Convent
The Monastery of the Visitation, Georgetown is a monastery of the Visitation Order in the District of Columbia, United States of America. History Founding This monastery was founded by Alice Lalor, native of County Kilkenny, Ireland, who sailed for this country in 1794 with her sister, Mrs. Doran, the wife of an American merchant. On the voyage she formed an intimacy with Mrs. Sharpe and Mrs. McDermott and, united in their vocation, they bought a small house in Philadelphia and began their community life under the direction of the Rev. Leonard Neale, who had succeeded Rev. Lawrence Graessel and Rev. Francis Fleming, victims of the yellow fever epidemic of 1793. The return of the fever in 1797-8 broke up their house, and Father Neale having been made president of Georgetown College invited them to settle in that place. Miss Lalor bought a small cottage near that of three French noblewomen of the Order of Poor Clares, who had escaped the revolutionary Terror and hoped to fou ...

The ''Visitation'' is a c.1588 oil painting of the Biblical Visitation by Tintoretto, held in the Scuola Grande di San Rocco in Venice. The picture, first recorded in a 1588 receipt, hangs high over an arch on the main staircase, The Visitation was an event described by St Luke in the Bible's New Testament (Luke 1:39-45) when Mary, the expectant mother of Jesus Christ, visited her older relative Elizabeth and her husband, the old priest Zechariah. Elizabeth, who although past child-bearing age, had also been blessed by God with a child, the future John the Baptist.

Visitation (Rubens)
''Visitation'' is a 1610s oil painting by the Flemish Baroque artist Peter Paul Rubens. It is now in the Musée des Beaux-Arts of Strasbourg, France. Its inventory number is 198. The painting was bought in London in 1890. It was first recorded as belonging to the estate of John Douglas of Gyrn Castle in 1840. Its previous history has been hypothetically reconstructed back until 1758, when it was supposedly sold with the collection of a Martin Robyns, on 22 May of that year. ''Visitation'' is a modello, and it has long been assumed that it has been painted as a first idea for the left wing of the Antwerp cathedral triptych '' The Descent from the Cross'', one of Rubens's most famous and influential works, and then abandoned, since the actual modello for the actual Antwerp ''Visitation'' is a version now kept in the Courtauld Institute of Art. In 2005 however, the Spanish art historian Matías Díaz Padrón, longtime director of the department of Flemish and Dutch paintings of the ...

''Visitation'' or ''Visitation with Saint Joseph and Saint Zacharias'' is a c.1550 painting by Tintoretto, now in the Pinacoteca Nazionale di Bologna.

Visitation (Sam Jones Album)
''Visitation'' is a studio album by American jazz bassist Sam Jones (musician), Sam Jones which was recorded in March, 1978 for the Danish SteepleChase Records label. This is his ninth album as a leader. The record was re-released on CD in 1994 and as an LP in 2014 with three bonus tracks. Reception Ken Dryden of Allmusic noted "this 1978 session, just a few years prior to his premature death, finds him leading a powerful post-bop quintet, his regular group at the time, with cornetist Terumasa Hino, tenor saxophonist Bob Berg, pianist Ronnie Mathews, and drummer Al Foster. Jones primarily plays a supporting role through a good part of the date, though he is prominently featured in the interpretation of Paul Chambers' "Visitation," while he also revisits his breezy bop vehicle "Del Sasser." Reviewer of ''Jazz Journal'' wrote "this latest album by Sam Jones is well up to standard....an excellent band....As for Sam Jones, he is in splendid form on all tracks, perhaps inspired by the ...
