Escudo de San Mateo Boyacá (Colombia) Hoodie: Design Overview
Embrace the rich heritage of San Mateo, Boyacá, Colombia with this striking hoodie design, meticulously crafted to showcase the municipality's Coat of Arms. Designed by the artist Fernando Mojica, the artwork is a vibrant testament to the region's history, culture, and identity.
Detailed Design Elements
The heart of the design is the shield, a captivating composition divided into four quadrants, each brimming with symbolic significance.
- Upper Left: A majestic deer antler pays homage to the local fauna, embodying the importance of conservation and the natural beauty of San Mateo.
- Upper Right: A pairing of a colonial axe and a cowboy's axe celebrates the industrious spirit of the community, representing the agricultural and cattle-ranching heritage of the region.
- Lower Left: An elegant harp resonates with the soul of the Llanera people, expressing the vibrant musical traditions and folklore of the region.
- Lower Right: A water buffalo stands as a powerful symbol of the local economy, representing the importance of livestock and agriculture.
Above the shield, replacing the traditional helmet, a bold centaur serves as a striking focal point. This mythical creature honors the heroic figures of the past, including those who fought in the historic Battle of Pantano de Vargas, and also represents the modern-day cowboy, a guardian of tradition and legendary skill.
At the base of the shield, two elegant corocoras (purple herons), native birds of the region, add a touch of natural beauty and represent the area's biodiversity. A golden ribbon, arching beneath the shield, proudly displays the motto "HONOR Y TRABAJO" (Honor and Work), reflecting the core values of the San Mateo community.
This design is more than just a visual; it’s a powerful narrative of heritage and pride, woven into a wearable emblem of San Mateo, Boyacá.
