Stuttgart....another German town in my collection!!!
The first thing that caught my attention was the horse in the top left corner coz it looks like Ferrari's logo and at first i thought it had something to do with Ferrari in Stuttgart...well, it actually is Stuttgart's coat of arms...whereas Ferrari's is just sliiightly different...so i dont know who copied from whom :)
This horse motif comes from the origins of the city's name: it comes from Stutengarten, an ancient form of the modern German word Gestüt, which translates into English as stud farm and into Italian as scuderia.
So yup, there is a relation....and no wonder i was confused, they really look the same....though on the other hand, when i think a bit more about it...Stuttgart is in Germany, Ferrari is Italian....absurd to have thought that Ferrari had something resided in Stuttgart...
