Hans Baldung's "Coat of arms Basler Adelberg III of Bear Rock, Lord Arisdorf" is a 1526 drawing depicting a heraldic crest of a bear within an elaborate and whimsical frame of foliage, fruit, and two putti. The image, executed in pen and ink, is characteristic of Baldung's detailed style and reflects his artistic interest in the visual language of heraldry. This design, likely intended for a book or a private commission, would have been a visually striking symbol of the family’s status and lineage.
