Wapen van Noord-Holland Hoodie Design
This hoodie proudly displays the Wapen van Noord-Holland, the official Coat of Arms of the Dutch province of North Holland. The design is a vibrant and historically rich emblem, a powerful statement of heritage and unity.
A Heraldic Masterpiece
The central element of this design is the shield, "Parted per pale," meaning it's divided vertically into two halves. The left side showcases the iconic Lion of Holland, a red lion rampant (standing on its hind legs) on a gold (Or) background. This lion, armed and langued (with claws and tongue) in azure (blue), symbolizes the bravery and power associated with the historical county of Holland.
The right side of the shield presents the Lion of West Friesland. This lion, in gold (Or), stands out against a blue (Azure) background, with its claws and tongue in red (gules). This second lion represents the strength and autonomy of the region of West Friesland, now an integral part of North Holland.
Symbols of Province and Sovereignty
Above the shield, a provincial coronet, a crown of five leaves and four pearls, signifies North Holland’s status as a province within the Kingdom of the Netherlands. Two natural-colored lions, acting as supporters, stand on either side of the shield, acting as noble guardians, further emphasizing the province's importance.
Meaning and Representation
The design speaks volumes about the province's history. The two lions represent the merger of the historical territories of Holland and West Friesland, and the division of the shield highlights the unity of diverse regions within North Holland. The entire design is a symbol of provincial identity, strength, and heritage.
