EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Coat of Arms of Glasgow, Scotland, a symbol steeped in history and significance. Created by an English School artist in the 20th century, this image captures the essence of Glasgow's rich heritage. The coat of arms features various elements that represent different aspects of the city. At its center is Saint Kentigern, also known as Saint Mungo, who holds a robin perched on his shoulder. This saint is revered as the founder and patron saint of Glasgow. Surrounding him are symbols such as an oak tree and a salmon swimming upstream. These images pay homage to Glasgow's natural beauty and its historical connection to fishing and forestry industries. The bishop's mitre atop the shield signifies the city's religious influence while heraldic blazons add a touch of elegance to this emblematic design. The motto "Let Glasgow Flourish" serves as a reminder of the city's resilience and ambition throughout history. Preserved within this archival photograph, we glimpse into early twentieth-century Scotland when these symbols held great importance for Glaswegians. It stands as a testament to their pride in their roots and their desire for progress. Thanks to Ken Welsh’s skilled photography, this image allows us to appreciate not only the artistry behind this coat of arms but also its historical significance within Scottish culture.
