TY - JOUR TI - The Image of Lublin’s Coat of Arms in Archival Sources of 15th–18th Centuries AU - Trojanowska, Maria TI - The Image of Lublin’s Coat of Arms in Archival Sources of 15th–18th Centuries AB - The article has collects and described iconographic fifteenth-eighteenth century sources to the history of the Lublin coat of arm, which are kept in the State Archive in Lublin. The images of the coat of arms have been divided into three groups depending on the sort of the source and the place of its occurrence. They include: images on the seals of the town, super-bookplates on the bindings of city registers, and heraldic painting decorations present on the pages of these volumes. The oldest images of the Lublin coat of arms were preserved on seals from the beginning of the fifteenth century which, considering their official character, are also the most precious heraldic source. The coat of arms presented on them, both in its structure and the style of the drawing was the mark of the city, accepted by its authorities. However, the first color images of Lublin’s coat of arms, important for recognizing heraldic colors, come from the first half of the eighteenth century.
