EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate and richly symbolic coat of arms of Manchester, England. Taken from The Business Encyclopaedia and Legal Adviser, published in 1907, this design is a testament to the city's historical significance and heraldic tradition. The shield-shaped illustration features a fascinating blend of elements that tell the story of Manchester's past. At its center stands a majestic lion, representing strength and courage. Flanking the lion are three bees, symbolizing industry and hard work - characteristics for which Manchester has long been renowned. Above the shield sits an elegant crest adorned with an antelope, adding an air of nobility to the emblem. Surrounding it all is a motto: "Concilio et Labore" meaning "By council and work". This powerful phrase encapsulates Manchester's ethos as a city built on collaboration and industriousness. As we delve into this archival gem from over a century ago, we are transported back to an era when heraldry played a significant role in visual storytelling. The coat of arms serves not only as an emblem but also as a window into Manchester's proud history. With its meticulous details and Welsh influences evident in its blazon design, this old yet timeless piece reminds us of how symbols can transcend time while preserving their cultural significance. It stands as both homage to English heritage and inspiration for future generations who continue to shape this vibrant cityscape.
