University of Plymouth Coat of Arms T-Shirt Design
This t-shirt showcases the prestigious Coat of Arms of the University of Plymouth, a powerful emblem steeped in history and academic tradition.
The Shield
At the heart of the design is the university's shield. It features a striking blue field, crossed by two prominent gold horizontal bands, subtly shaped to resemble an open book, symbolizing the university's commitment to learning and scholarship. The top and bottom portions of the field are adorned with silver stars ("estoiles"), referencing Plymouth's rich maritime history and its legacy of navigation. The central band displays gold scallop shells, a symbol of pilgrimage, and a poignant reference to the Pilgrim Fathers' historic voyage from Plymouth in 1620.
Supporters and Crest
Adding to the design's visual richness are the supporters: a Pelican and a Golden Hind. The Golden Hind, instantly recognizable, honors Sir Francis Drake and his famous ship. The Pelican, a symbol of sacrifice and care, contributes to the overall symbolic depth of the design. The design also incorporates elements from the crest, resonating with the university's seafaring heritage.
This design is a visual testament to the University of Plymouth's rich history, its academic mission, and its deep connection to the city's maritime past.
