EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 18th century coat of arms belongs to Jacob Feitama II (1698-1774), a Dutch merchant from the Low Countries active during the 1725-1774 period. The intricately designed heraldic object is a testament to the rich heritage and tradition of European heraldry. The coat of arms features a ram's head, symbolizing strength, power, and vigilance, as well as the merchant's connection to the trade industry. The ram's head is depicted in a naturalistic style, with its curved horns and expressive eyes. The ram's body is not shown, and instead, the background is filled with a vibrant green color, symbolizing growth, prosperity, and abundance. The coat of arms is rendered on a shield of arms, made of parchment, an animal material commonly used in heraldic objects due to its durability and ability to hold ink and paint well. The design is further enhanced with delicate watercolor paint, adding depth and texture to the image. The blazon of the coat of arms is not provided, but it is likely that the ram's head was the central element, with the green background serving as a secondary charge. The Feitama family crest may have included other elements, such as a motto or additional symbols, but this print focuses solely on the ram's head. This beautiful and historic coat of arms is a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of European heraldry and the importance of family lineage and tradition in the 18th century. The Rijksmuseum in the Netherlands is the current custodian of this valuable piece, preserving it for future generations to appreciate and study.
