Étendard 74e Régiment d'Artillerie Hoodie Design
This hoodie design embodies the spirit of the 74e Régiment d'Artillerie of France. The artwork is directly inspired by the regiment's ceremonial flag, the Étendard, a sacred symbol representing honor, tradition, and the unit's history of valor.
Obverse Design
The central element of the design mirrors the obverse, or front, of the Étendard. A vibrant tricolor background of blue, white, and red, representing the French national colors, forms the canvas. Arching across the top, in elegant golden lettering, is "RÉPUBLIQUE FRANÇAISE." Positioned along the bottom, also in gold, is the regiment’s designation: "74e RÉGIMENT D’ARTILLERIE." This layout mirrors the original flag, designed to reflect the unit's pride in its nation and its place within the French Army.
Reverse Design Inspiration
The design also draws inspiration from the reverse side of the Étendard. Emulating the arrangement of battle honors, the potential inclusion of significant battle names (or symbolic representations thereof) are displayed, surrounded by golden laurel branches. These elements stand as a testament to the regiment’s past actions and the legacy it has achieved through the years. Further paying tribute to its historical connections the design includes golden fringes and fleur-de-lis-style ornaments.
Symbolism and Meaning
Wearing this design is akin to carrying a piece of the regiment's history. It honors the courage and sacrifice of the soldiers who served under the 74e Régiment d'Artillerie. The colors, inscriptions, and potential battle honors collectively represent the unit's connection to France, its bravery in battle, and the unwavering dedication to its duties.
