London School of Economics Coat of Arms T-Shirt Design
This t-shirt features the distinguished Coat of Arms of the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE), a symbol of academic excellence and commitment to understanding the world.
Heraldic Elements
At the heart of the design is the shield, rendered in stark black, upon which a beaver is depicted in its natural, brown color. The beaver is shown "passant," or walking, and is holding a golden book in its mouth. Above the shield, two additional golden books are prominently displayed.
Symbolism and Meaning
The central figure, the beaver, is the school's mascot and represents industriousness and social cooperation. Beavers are renowned for their hard work and ability to build complex structures, mirroring the qualities LSE seeks to cultivate in its students. The golden book held by the beaver, and the two books above, are visual representations of knowledge and the pursuit of learning, the core tenets of the institution's mission.
The Motto
Below the shield, a ribbon proudly displays the Latin motto: "Rerum cognoscere causas." This translates to "To understand the causes of things," a powerful statement from Virgil's Georgics. The inclusion of this motto emphasizes LSE's commitment to exploring and understanding the underlying principles that shape the social and economic world.
This design is a visual testament to the rich history and enduring values of the London School of Economics.
