Coat of Arms of Peru State Flag - Pre-1884 (Peru) Hoodie Design
This hoodie showcases the historically significant Coat of Arms of Peru, as it appeared on the State Flag (Pabellón Nacional) prior to the 1884 standardization. The artwork meticulously recreates the emblem's composition, rich with symbolic meaning.
The Escudo Nacional: A Visual Narrative
The design centers on the Peruvian shield, divided into three distinct fields, each telling a story of the nation's identity and resources.
- Upper Left Field (Azure): Features the vicuña, a noble Andean camelid, depicted in a naturalistic pose. This symbolizes Peru's rich animal life, freedom, and the natural wealth of its fauna.
- Upper Right Field (Argent): Displays the cinchona tree, the source of quinine. This represents Peru's flora, natural medicinal resources, and the importance of plant life to the nation.
- Lower Field (Gules): Showcases a golden cornucopia overflowing with coins. This is a vivid representation of mineral wealth and national prosperity, highlighting Peru's mining riches.
Ornaments of Glory
The shield itself is embraced by external ornamentation that further emphasizes national pride. Flanking the shield are a laurel branch, on the left, and a palm branch, on the right. These are bound together by a ribbon in the national colors of red and white, symbolizing glory and peace, unity and the spirit of Peru.
The pre-1884 version distinguishes itself by its particular shield shape and the specific, sometimes varied, depiction of the vicuña, cinchona tree and the cornucopia. This design represents a pivotal era in Peruvian history, embodying the nascent nation's aspirations and its connection to its abundant resources.
