Spain I. Introduction “The flag is the embodiment, not of sentiment, but of history. It represents the experiences made by men and women, the experiences of those who do and live under that flag.” Woodrow Wilson1 “FLAG, n. A colored rag borne above troops and hoisted on forts and ships. It appears to serve the same purpose as certain signs that one sees on vacant lots in London—‘Rubbish may be shot here.’” Ambrose Bierce2 The power of the flag as a national symbol was all too evident in the 1990s: the constitutional debate over flag burning in the United States; the violent removal of the communist seal from the Romanian flag; and the adoption of the former czarist flag by the Russian Federation. In the United States, Texas alone possesses a flag and seal directly descended from revolution and nationhood. The distinctive feature of INSIDE / SOMMAIRE Page both the state flag and seal, the Lone Star, is famous worldwide because of the brief Editor’s Note / Note de la rédaction 2 existence of the Republic of Texas (March 2, 1836, to December 29, 1845).3 For all Solid Vexillology 2 the Lone Star’s fame, however, there is much misinformation about it.

  • Catalan Modernism and Vexillology
    Catalan Modernism and Vexillology Sebastià Herreros i Agüí Abstract Modernism (Modern Style, Modernisme, or Art Nouveau) was an artistic and cultural movement which flourished in Europe roughly between 1880 and 1915. In Catalonia, because this era coincided with movements for autonomy and independence and the growth of a rich bourgeoisie, Modernism developed in a special way. Differing from the form in other countries, in Catalonia works in the Modern Style included many symbolic elements reflecting the Catalan nationalism of their creators. This paper, which follows Wladyslaw Serwatowski’s 20 ICV presentation on Antoni Gaudí as a vexillographer, studies other Modernist artists and their flag-related works. Lluís Domènech i Montaner, Josep Puig i Cadafalch, Josep Llimona, Miquel Blay, Alexandre de Riquer, Apel·les Mestres, Antoni Maria Gallissà, Joan Maragall, Josep Maria Jujol, Lluís Masriera, Lluís Millet, and others were masters in many artistic disciplines: Architecture, Sculpture, Jewelry, Poetry, Music, Sigillography, Bookplates, etc. and also, perhaps unconsciously, Vexillography. This paper highlights several flags and banners of unusual quality and national significance: Unió Catalanista, Sant Lluc, CADCI, Catalans d’Amèrica, Ripoll, Orfeó Català, Esbart Català de Dansaires, and some gonfalons and flags from choral groups and sometent (armed civil groups).

One of a series of “best-of surveys,” the linear).svg contest asked readers to rate the flags of 140 nations. Although this was a self- selecting sample and not a scientific survey, it was an interesting outgrowth of the phenomenon of flags. The contest attracted 1,920,000 entry ballots, which was three times the number of participant entries that are normally attracted by similar “best-of contests.” The article’s title announced the results dramati- cally: “Mexico sweeps the most beautiful flag in the world list.” Mexico’s flag received 901,607 points, or 47% of the vote.1 This, of course, does not prove that the Mexican flag is actually the most beautiful flag in the world, but this and extensive anecdotal evidence demonstrates that the flag “works” and is a beloved banner.

    Proc. XVII International Congress of Vexillology Copyright ©1999, Southern African Vexillological ^ssn. Peter Martinez (ed.) The Spanish navy flag chart of 1854 Emil Dreyer ABSTRACT: A coloured flag chart of the Spanish Navy dating from 1854 is presented and discussed. The history of each flag is explained, starting with the royal standard, followed by the war and commercial ensigns, the flags of the revenue and mail services, the flag to call a pilot and the flags of the Royal Maritime and Royal Philippine companies. Rank pennants are shown as well, as are the numeral triangular flags of the coast guard divisions. Also shown on the chart are the maritime province or register flags, introduced in 1845. The important influence of these register flags on the develop­ ment of Spanish civic flags and yacht club burgees is discussed. The Spanish text of the chart is entirely reproduced, followed by extracts of English translation. The illustrations for this paper appear on Plates 40~41- 1 Introduction The Hydrographic Office in Madrid published in 1854 a flag chart^ showing all the Spanish ensigns, rank flags, coast-guard pennants and maritime province flags (Fig. 1). It is the flrst and only comprehensive official Navy flag chart ever to have been published in Spain. The chart, which has a size of 50x70 cm, was printed with flags in detailed outlines and then hand coloured. The library of the Naval Museum in Madrid keeps an original of the chart, its water-colours having slightly faded with time. The chart presented here was originally uncoloured, the author having coloured it like the chart in the Naval Museum, but with opaque colour instead of water-colour, which gives it a more vivid impression.

  • Why Does St. Peter's Barge Wear the Blue Ensign?
    Why does St. Peter’s Barge wear the Blue Ensign? St. Peter’s Barge is London’s only floating church, and has spiritually been “flying the flag” in Canary Wharf since arriving at West India Quay in 2004. But until now, unlike many of the other vessels around her, the barge has not been flying an actual flag. This has now changed, and the flag that she flies – or, in nautical terminology – the ensign that she wears – is rather unusual. From 1620 until 1864, the Royal Navy was divided into three squadrons: Red, White and Blue. The Red Squadron, which was the most senior, patrolled the Caribbean and the North Atlantic. The White Squadron patrolled the coasts of Britain and France and the Mediterranean, while the Blue patrolled the South Atlantic, the Pacific and the Indian Ocean. Ships of the three squadrons were identified by a flag or “ensign” of the appropriate colour, each incorporating the red-on-white cross of St. George (patron saint of England): 17 th Century Naval ensigns: Red Ensign White Ensign Blue Ensign Captains of Royal Navy ships arriving in London needed to find a church where they could register the details of any deaths, births or marriages that had occurred during the voyage. Deaths were to be expected, of course, but remarkably there were often some births and occasionally even a marriage, as it was not uncommon for there to be women on board! The church usually chosen as the place of registry was St. Dunstan’s, Stepney, as its large (but then thinly-populated) East London parish extended all the way down to the river.

  • Flag Flying Policy
    Fishguard & Goodwick Town Council Cyngor Tref Abergwaun ac Wdig FLAG FLYING POLICY 1. Background: Flags are traditionally flown by the Town Council to show allegiance, support and respect, or to celebrate. The Town Council needs to be sensitive to the views of its communities and will never fly flags for political reasons. This policy has been written in line with the national flag flying guidelines. 2. Introduction: 2.1 All flags that fly, are subject to the same standards and must be: Maintained so as not to impair the visual appearance Be reinforced on the loose end, to prevent “ragging” during high winds and bad weather Unable to obscure the highway or hinder the interpretation of use of the highway in any way Removed carefully, dried out properly and stored safely 2.2 There are three categories of flag: Flags that can be flown without permission of the planning authority Flags that can be flown without consent, provided they comply with restrictions. Flags that require planning permission/consent Flags that do not need the permission of the planning authority a) A counties national flag, civil ensign or civil air ensign b) The flags of the Commonwealth, the European Union, the United Nations or any other international organisation of which the United Kingdom (UK) is a member c) A flag of any island, county, district, parish, city, town or village within the UK d) The flag of St David – different to the flag of Wales e) The flag of St. Patrick – different to the flag of Scotland f) Any flag of Her Majesty’s Forces g) By the authority or instruction of the Pembrokeshire County Council.
