Summary[edit]

Description
English: Evolution of the Polish Eagle’s (Orzeł Biały, "white eagle") design from 12th century to the year 1927, drawing published in “Światowid”, a weekly magazine published in Kraków, Poland, 1936 (1935?); see Coat of arms of Poland.
''Evolution of the Polish Eagle's design from 12th century to the year 1927.
The White Eagle (in Polish: Orzeł Biały) is the national coat of arms of Poland. It is a stylized white eagle with a golden beak and talons, and wearing a golden crown, in a red shield.
The White Eagle emblem originated when Poland's legendary founder Lech saw a white eagle's nest. When he looked at the bird, a ray of sunshine from the red setting sun fell on its wings, so they appeared tipped with gold, the rest of the eagle was pure white. He was delighted and decided to settle there and placed the eagle on his emblem.''
