Coat of Arms of Increase Sumner T-Shirt Design
This t-shirt showcases the distinguished Coat of Arms of Increase Sumner, the fifth Governor of Massachusetts. The design is a striking representation of heraldic tradition, offering a visual connection to the Sumner family's history.
The Shield
The central element of the design is the shield, meticulously depicted in its heraldic colors. The background, rendered in Ermine, showcases a pattern of white with black spots, adding visual texture. Across the field, two chevronels in Gules, (red) create a dynamic pattern, drawing the eye and adding to the shield's visual impact.
The Crest
Above the shield, the crest features a Lion's head in Erminois (gold with black spots). The lion's head is ducally gorged, meaning it wears a gold collar, a symbol of nobility and dignity. The use of gold enhances the crest's prominence and lends to its regality.
The Motto
The design also incorporates the Sumner family motto, "In medio tutissimus ibis," translating to "In the middle path, thou shalt be safest." The motto may be incorporated beneath the shield, providing further context and enhancing the overall design.
Symbolism and Meaning
The Coat of Arms is rich in symbolism. The Ermine represents purity and dignity. The Chevronels may symbolize protection and construction, and the Lion's head exemplifies courage, strength, and leadership. This detailed design is a testament to the heraldic legacy of Increase Sumner and his family.
