Carel Adolph Lion Cachet’s 1874 - 1945 design for a vignette of Het Invalidenhuis te Leiden, a home for the disabled, features a heraldic lion holding a sword, the symbol of the city of Leiden, Netherlands. The vignette incorporates the Latin motto "Eendracht Maakt Macht", meaning “Unity makes strength”. The design also features the city’s coat of arms and two crossed keys, a symbol of the home’s charity work. This graphic design is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum.
