UNAL AplicaciĆ³n Dep Elect (Colombia) (Coat of Arms) T-Shirt - Design
This t-shirt showcases the official Coat of Arms of the National University of Colombia (UNAL), a symbol of academic excellence and national pride, as adopted by the Department of Electromagnetism for its visual identity.
The Escutcheon: A Heraldic Tapestry
At the heart of the design lies the Polish-style escutcheon, a shield divided into four quadrants, each rich with symbolic meaning, reflecting UNAL's diverse academic landscape. The top-left quadrant, colored Gules (red), bears a silver balance, a visual representation of Justice, directly linked to the Faculty of Law. Opposite, in Azure (blue), a golden open book symbolizes Knowledge, representing the Faculty of Humanities.
The bottom-left quadrant, Vert (green), presents a golden plough, a potent symbol of Agriculture, associated with the Faculty of Agricultural Sciences. Finally, in Or (gold), the bottom-right quadrant displays a silver gear, signifying Industry and its connection to the Faculty of Engineering.
A Condor and Mottos of Legacy
Above the shield, an Andean condor, the national bird of Colombia, proudly perches. It holds a banner inscribed with the nation's motto, "Libertad y Orden" ("Liberty and Order"), affirming the principles that guide Colombia. The condor also grasps an olive crown, a symbol of peace.
Beneath the shield, a banner displays the university's motto in Latin: "Inter Aulas Academiae Quaere Verum," meaning "Seek the truth within the halls of the academy." This motto underscores the university's commitment to the pursuit of knowledge and truth.
