Coat of Arms of the Roman Catholic Diocese of East Anglia (England) T-Shirt: Design Overview
This t-shirt showcases the full Coat of Arms of the Roman Catholic Diocese of East Anglia, a striking heraldic design rich in symbolism and historical significance. The artwork presents the design elements as officially granted on October 1, 2012.
The Shield (Arms)
The central element is the shield, the focal point of the design. Its field is a radiant gold (Or), symbolizing the glory of God. Across this golden canvas, a distinctive blue (Azure) pall is displayed. This pall, a Y-shaped band, represents the pallium, a vestment signifying the diocesan connection to the archdiocese.
The design is further enriched with three silver fleurs-de-lis (Argent) positioned between the arms of the pall. These elegant floral symbols represent the Virgin Mary, the patroness of the diocese. At the top of the shield, a blue chief (upper section) features three golden crowns (Or). These crowns honor the three patron saints of the diocese: Our Lady of Walsingham, St. Felix, and St. Edmund.
The Crest
Above the shield, the crest is depicted. It features a silver (Argent) mitre, the traditional headwear of a bishop. The mitre sits atop a wreath of gold and blue, further emphasizing the diocesan and episcopal significance of the design.
Supporters & Motto
Completing the design are the supporters: two pastoral staffs, crossed in saltire (X-shape) beneath the shield. These represent the pastoral care and authority of the bishop. Finally, the motto, "Dei gratia probemur rebus" (By God's grace, let us be judged by our deeds), underscores the diocese's commitment to action and faith.
This artwork is a visual celebration of faith, heritage, and the enduring values of the Roman Catholic Diocese of East Anglia.
