EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning family crest, believed to be of the Zaanen genus, dates back to the 17th or 18th century. The intricate design features a rampant lion holding a shield, upon which rests an escutcheon displaying a peacock in full plumage. The lion's mane and the peacock's feathers are adorned with floral patterns, adding an elegant touch to the heraldic crest. The lion, a symbol of courage and strength, represents the family's noble lineage, while the peacock, with its vibrant colors and elegant appearance, signifies pride and vanity. The crest is rendered in watercolor on parchment, a common technique used during this period for creating detailed and long-lasting crests. This beautiful work of art, showcasing the rich cultural heritage of the Low Countries, is a testament to the intricacy and artistry of netherlandish heraldry during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. The crest is currently on display at the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, as part of their extensive collection of historic art and artifacts.
