University of St Andrews Coat of Arms T-Shirt
This t-shirt showcases the distinguished Coat of Arms of the University of St Andrews, Scotland, a design officially matriculated in 1905. The artwork centers around a shield, divided by a striking saltire, an X-shaped cross reminiscent of the Scottish flag, in alternating silver/white (Argent) and blue (Azure).
Shield Elements and Symbolism
At the top of the shield (the chief), a band in red (Gules) bears significant elements. A silver/white (Argent) reversed crescent is positioned between two gold hollow lozenges (mascles Or). The crescent symbolizes Pope Benedict XIII, a key figure in the university's founding. The mascles are taken from the arms of Henry Wardlaw, another founder and Bishop of St Andrews.
The top section (chief) of the shield features an open book in its natural colours, a classic emblem of learning and scholarship. The bottom (base) presents a red (Gules) lion rampant, a majestic creature taken from the Royal Arms of Scotland. The lion signifies royal authority, reflecting the involvement of King James I in the university's origins.
The overall composition, with its carefully chosen colours and symbols, creates a powerful visual representation of the University's rich history, its founding figures, its ties to Scotland, and its commitment to academic excellence.
