Reverse description The elaborate armorial achievement of Schulenburg occupies the center field, a quartered shield supported by two standing Wild Men (Wildmänner) holding clubs, flanking the arms on either side. Above the shield rise three crested helms with ornate mantling, the central crest bearing a figure with outstretched wings. The Latin legend curves along the upper portion of the field, with the Horatian source citation continuing along the right side.
