Lamborghini logo and symbol, meaning, history, PNG
- Which animal is featured on the Lamborghini car logo?
- The animal depicted on the iconic Lamborghini logo is a bull.
- 1953 – 1963 The very first Lamborghini logo was completely different from what the whole world got used to seeing as the luxury brand’s emblem.
- It was a simple monochrome geometric logo with a minimum of elements.
- Each triangle had the black capital letter in it — F, L, and C. The letters were written in a very simple yet strict and confident sans-serif typeface.
- 1963 – 1972 The iconic Lamborghini emblem, which is one of the most recognizable car badges in the world, was introduced in 1963.
- It depicts a golden bull on a black crest with a gold outline and an elegant sans-serif lettering above the animal’s head.
- 1974 – 1998 In 1974 there was another version of the iconic logo created for the brand.
- The same crest with the Taurus was executed in monochrome and accompanied by a bold sans-serif wordmark under it.
- Though this version did not stay for long, it was only used for seven years, when the luxury car brand was owned by the American Chrysler company.
- As for the lettering, now it was the uppercase inscription in gold thick sand-serif, placed on a black background, above the bill and covered by the golden outline of the crest from the top.
- Symbol The Taurus was chosen as the symbol of the brand – the sign of the zodiac of Ferruccio Lamborghini.
- Too chosen image was close to the logo of the nearest competitor.
- Namely – imperfection of the technical side of cars of this particular brand caused excitement of the manufacturer of tractors, Lamborghini, to surpass them.
- It was just the same how Ferruccio Lamborghini tried to win over Europe.
- The figure is settled not classically according to heraldry (the classic is the location of image of the animal in the profile, and not in such a complicated posture as on the logo), but exactly this “irregularity” gives dynamics to the image, the evidence of the desire for innovation.
- Font In the logo, the font does not play the most important role.
- Moreover, in one of version (minor changes during the decades of the company’s existence took place), the font was not supposed at all.
- However, in the current version, the font is used.
- The combination of classical black (aristocratism, dignity, restraint and thus reliability) and gold colour has allowed to underline elite character of a brand and each car created under these brand.
