The upper part was divided into two fields, each section had an escutcheon - something related to the origin of the person to which it belonged.

The left field showed the Sind Desert with its distinctive animal, the camel, while in the background rise the mountains of Baluchistan.

With the motto Sub Matris tutela (under maternal protection), Lemmens dedicated his work as superior of the Dutch mission in Karachi under the patronage of the Blessed Virgin, the patroness of the Franciscans and of his birthplace.

The shield shows that it belonged to a religious head of Sind and Baluchistan, who was a member of the Franciscan Order and from Oostrum.
