Escudo de Francisco José Prieto Fernández (Coat of Arms) Hoodie - Design Description
This hoodie showcases the official coat of arms of Monsignor Francisco José Prieto Fernández, Archbishop of Santiago de Compostela, a heraldic emblem rich in symbolism.
Shield Elements
The design is centered around a shield divided into three distinct sections, each contributing to the Archbishop's spiritual narrative.
Upper Section (Chief)
The upper section features a golden book prominently displaying the Greek letters Alpha (Α) and Omega (Ω). This symbolizes Christ as the eternal beginning and end, a core tenet of Christian faith. Beneath the book, an intertwined "A" and "M" forms the Marian monogram, a reverent homage to the Virgin Mary.
Lower Left Section
The lower left quadrant presents Saint Martin of Tours, the patron saint of the Diocese of Ourense. The artwork depicts him sharing his cloak with a beggar, representing charity, compassion, and the Archbishop's commitment to service.
Lower Right Section
The lower right displays an urn, the symbolic representation of the tomb of Saint James the Greater, the patron saint of the Archdiocese of Santiago de Compostela. Above the urn, an eight-pointed star is included, representing the Camino de Santiago, the historic pilgrimage route that leads to the saint's tomb and represents the journey of faith.
Supporting Elements
The shield is crowned by a green episcopal mitre, signifying the archiepiscopal rank. Flanking the shield are green cords with tassels, further representing the Archbishop's ecclesiastical status. Below the shield, a scroll bearing the episcopal motto: "Sequi Salvatorem participare est salutem" ("To follow the Savior is to partake in salvation"), a powerful message of faith and discipleship, completes the design.
