Gеrb Tsarstva Astrakhanskogo 1882 (Russia) (Coat of Arms) Hoodie - Design Description
This hoodie showcases the elaborate design of the Gеrb Tsarstva Astrakhanskogo, the Coat of Arms of the Astrakhan Governorate, as officially sanctioned in 1882 as part of the Russian Empire's larger heraldic system.
Visual Elements and Symbolism
The central element of the design is a blue (lazure) shield. Dominating the shield is a golden crown, mirroring a royal design with five distinct arches and a green lining, symbolizing sovereignty and the historical connection to the monarchy.
Beneath the crown, a silver Eastern sword is prominently displayed, its blade pointing towards the right. The sword’s handle is rendered in gold. The sword represents the military prowess and martial traditions of the region, often associated with defense and power.
The shield itself is crowned with the Imperial Crown, signifying its inclusion within the Russian Empire and its privileged status. Surrounding the shield are golden oak leaves, linked together with a blue St. Andrew's ribbon, which underscores the emblem’s place in a greater imperial context. The oak leaves can be interpreted as representing strength, endurance, and honor.
This complete composition conveys a powerful message of imperial connection, royal authority, military capability, and regional identity, skillfully combined within the heraldic conventions of the era.
