    The limestone, polychromated relief with the coat-of arms of the Duitgenius family was installed saterday March 1 March 2014 installed. Luckily it was dry, and though a little bit more sun would have been nice, everything went smoothly during the mounting. The coat of arms is suspended from four stainless steel pins in the wall.

    In the previous blogposts on this coat of arms more can be read about its realisation.

    Update 4 March 2014: From the client, Mr Duitgenius himself, Today I received a number of photos of the coat of arms in much better quality.

    To my great joy the family crest of Duitgenius was polychromed in full glory, which means painted in multiple colours. Rómulo has had quite a bit of work doing all the, guilding, base coats, silver plating and several coats of colour.

    He added depth to the colour by several layers of paint with accents in a slightly different hue. He also added a patina to the layer of silver, giving the relief more visual depth.
