Coat of Arms of the House of Bentivoglio 1670 (Italy) T-Shirt: Design Description
This striking t-shirt design features the meticulously recreated Coat of Arms of the House of Bentivoglio, as it appeared in 1670, offering a powerful symbol of Italian noble heritage.
Shield and Quartering
The central element is the heraldic shield, divided into four quarters. The design employs a quartered field of alternating red and gold, a bold and visually engaging pattern that immediately draws the eye.
Charges and Symbols
Dominating the upper-left and lower-right quarters are imposing black double-headed eagles. These eagles are not just decorative; they are potent symbols of imperial authority and noble standing, reflecting the Bentivoglio family's connection to power and prestige.
At the heart of the design, a smaller central shield, or escutcheon, commands attention. It showcases a red flame set against a gold field. This central motif represents the family's enduring resilience and "fiery spirit," conveying strength and determination.
Crest, Coronet and Motto
Above the shield, the design incorporates the classic elements of a knight's helmet, crowned with a coronet, and crowned with a plume of feathers. These elements further signify the nobility and high social standing of the Bentivoglio family.
Beneath the shield, the powerful family motto "NUNC MICHI" (Now is my time) appears, adding a layer of historical significance to the overall design. This motto serves as a strong statement of the family's assertion of their influence and rightful place in history.
