Uithoorn Wapen 2020 T-Shirt: Design Description
This t-shirt showcases the official Coat of Arms of Uithoorn, Netherlands, as redesigned in 2020 to commemorate the municipality's bicentennial anniversary.
The Central Shield
The design prominently features the shield, the heart of the coat of arms. The shield's background is a vibrant azure blue. At the center, a golden horn is depicted, complete with silver fittings and red banding. Issuing forth from the horn's mouth is a bust of a child, rendered in natural colors.
The Base and its Symbols
The lower portion of the shield features a wavy or undulating silver base, which symbolizes the Amstel River flowing through Uithoorn. Adorning this silver base is a red rose, its center knotted in gold, and its sepals (pointed leaves) highlighted in green. This represents the significant flower cultivation and horticultural activity found in the De Kwakel area of Uithoorn.
Crest: The Crown
Above the shield, the design includes a golden crown. This crown is adorned with three leaves and two pearls, adding a touch of regal elegance to the overall composition.
Meaning and Symbolism
The overall design is rich in symbolism. The horn, which is the most prominent element, is a visual pun (canting) on the name "Uithoorn," meaning "out horn". The wavy silver base represents the crucial role the Amstel River played and plays in the city. The rose represents the flowers grown in the area.
