A beautiful drawing with the heraldic coat of arms for the province of Lapland from the 19th century.
Lapland's regional coat of arms is an unusual representation of a heraldic one. It depicts a wild man, covered in leaves and carrying a club over his shoulder. The wild man as a symbol of Lapland first appears on a pair of coins, issued at the time of Charles IX's coronation in 1607. The wild man, which is often a feature of Nordic folklore, symbolizes the wilderness and its relentless nature as well as man's aspiration to live in harmony with it.
Lapland itself is Sweden's largest landscape and stretches across the northern part of the country. The landscape is known for its magnificent scenery that includes mountains, vast forests and several large rivers, making it a central location for both Sami culture and extensive mining. These elements also reflect the deep historical and cultural significance of the region.
The text above the coat of arms reads: "Coat of Lapland". At the bottom left it says: "Sweden's National and Country Coat of Arms. Established by the Royal Majesty. After drawings by Prof. M. AD. Hildebrandt in Berlin. Published by Carl Arvid Klingspor."
