Blason Charles-Marie-Michel de Goyon 1844-1930 3e duc de Feltre (France) Hoodie - Design Description
This hoodie showcases the heraldic achievement, or coat of arms, of Charles-Marie-Michel de Goyon, the 3rd Duke of Feltre, a prominent figure in French history.
The Design Elements
The design is a partitioned shield. On the left (the "1st quarter") the design depicts a field of red ("gueules") upon which are three silver swords ("épées d'argent") pointing upwards, with gold hilts ("garnies d'or"). The right (the "2nd quarter") also displays a field of red ("gueules"), this time featuring a golden lion ("lion d'or"). Overlapping the top of the shield ("au chef brochant") is the distinctive emblem of the Dukes of the Empire, a red field ("gueules") scattered with silver stars ("semé d'étoiles d'argent").
Symbolism and Meaning
The visual elements are rich in symbolism, reflecting the titles and lineage of the Duke.
- Three Silver Swords with Gold Hilts: These swords are a visual representation of the title of Duke of Feltre, a distinction bestowed by Napoleon I in 1809.

- The Chief of the Dukes of the Empire with Silver Stars: This prominent element signifies the Duke's membership within the Imperial French nobility, denoting a place of high status and distinction during that era.
