Going through this reference again: Stemmario Trivulziano (Codice Trivulziano 1390), Lombardy
Originally the numbers of insignias with heraldic representations of swallowtail merlons and square merlons on buildings and towers seemed to be roughly equivalent. This time, however, in the matter of the representations placed in the heraldic chief, the situation is totally one-sided. The black Imperial / Ghibelline eagle is quite numerous. In contrast, I found only two examples of the Guelf affiliated "chief of Anjou". [A blue field, three golden fleur-de-lys with a red label.] Image #60, lower right; Image #165, lower left.
Historically, the merlons were there before Anjou arrived, much of the heraldry probably was already in place as well.
P.S.: Some interesting Visconti variations in Images #23-25.
