Coat of Arms of Edward Howell (United States) T-Shirt: Design Details
This t-shirt showcases the historically attributed Coat of Arms of Edward Howell, one of the founders of Southampton, New York. The design is a faithful representation of the heraldic elements associated with his English lineage.
The Shield (Arms)
The central element is the shield, the foundation of the heraldic design. It features a bold Gules (red) background. Upon this field are three Argent (silver or white) towers, each with three turrets. These towers, in their repeating pattern, likely represent strength, resilience, and perhaps a connection to a castle or fortified structure.
The Crest
Rising above the shield is the crest, the most decorative element in this design. It depicts an Or (gold) ducal crown, from which emerges a Gules (red) rose, complete with green stalk and leaves. This floral element symbolizes beauty, purity, and perhaps the family's ties to England. Flanking the rose and crown are two wings endorsed, meaning they face outwards. Wings often represent flight, freedom, aspiration, or protection.
Symbolism and Meaning
Together, these elements create a design rich in symbolism. The red shield can represent military fortitude or sacrifice. The towers symbolize strength and security. The rose signifies beauty, grace, and ties to the past. The wings add a dynamic sense of upward movement and protection. Overall, the coat of arms speaks to the enduring legacy of Edward Howell and his family, connecting them to their English heritage and early American roots.
