Being a uniform and flag design service to wargamers and to the imaginary crowned heads of 17th and 18th Century Europe, especially of the Seven Years War period - now By Appointment to the Court of Saxe-Bearstein! (But please note that the uniforms and flags presented here are not fictional - they are genuine 17th and 18th Century uniforms and flags that are as authentic as I can make them from my sources.)
Although he does not show an illustration of it and quotes no source, Robert Hall describes this Colonel's flag for Dutch Infantry Regiment Aylva. My other post on the regiment can be found here, for service details etc.: https://nba-sywtemplates.blogspot.com/2024/10/flags-and-uniform-dutch-infantry.html

Nice addition David for the regiment, it's a nice flag.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Donnie. It is fairly simple but that is not always a disadvantage! :-)
DeleteAll the best,
David.
Lovely and simple there and I always think 'Swedish' when seeing blue and yellow together, especially with the 'lion rampant' (?).
ReplyDeleteThank you, Steve. Yes, I agree; and perhaps one day I'll manage to embark on Swedish flags of the period! They are on my now immense To Do list... :-)
DeleteAll the best,
David.
Plan, simple but very effective!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Ray. Simpler flags do often offer a good contrast with the more elaborate examples. :-)
DeleteAll the best,
David.
Fantastic flag.

DeleteThank you, Willz. Not just because they are easier to do, I often feel that simpler can mean more elegant and appealing too! :-)
