caption: The image shows an old book with a yellow and black coat of arms on it. The book is open, revealing a page with text and a painting on it, which is believed to be the coat-of-arms of the German family. The painting is composed of a shield with a lion rampant, a chevron, and a crown, all of which are surrounded by a wreath of leaves and flowers. The lion rampant is a symbol of strength and power, while the crown is a representation of the family's motto.
