Westervoort Coat of Arms Hoodie: A Heraldic Display
Embrace the history of the former Heerlijkheid Westervoort with this striking hoodie design, meticulously recreating its official coat of arms.
Design Elements and Artistic Representation
The design prominently features the Westervoort coat of arms, a symbol of its noble past. The artwork is divided into four equal quadrants, a traditional heraldic approach known as "quartering." The first and fourth quarters are rendered in a pristine silver (argent), while the second and third are presented in a deep black (sable), providing a strong visual contrast.
Heart Shield and Central Imagery
At the heart of the design lies a central heart shield, colored in a vibrant blue (azure). This smaller shield holds the most significant visual element: a majestic double-headed eagle. The eagle is depicted in silver (argent), its form rendered without tongues, and its beak and legs are meticulously detailed in gold (or), creating a striking and noble appearance.
Symbolism and Historical Context
The elements of this design speak volumes about Westervoort's history. The silver and black quadrants pay homage to the Land van den Bergh, reflecting the region's historical ties. The double-headed eagle, a symbol of nobility and authority, signifies the lordship's distinguished status. Finally, the blue heart shield represents the city of Arnhem, acknowledging its connection to the lordship.
