Three Spanish Infantry Flag Sets 1728-1768 - Lombardia, Granada and España

I did these as a commission a couple of years ago for Lewis Simpson-Jones on the understanding they would go on the blog too but I have been sadly slow to put them on here. Well, here they are now. I did originally plan texts to go with them but, in the spirit of not re-inventing the wheel (and spending lots of time with which I would rather be creating new flags), I suggest a visit to Kronoskaf for those who would like regimental details:

Burgos, Murcia and Cantabria plus Irish regiment flags to follow soon...

Generic British Infantry Colours For The War Of The Spanish Succession

There is rather a paucity of known infantry colours of the period so I was asked back in April to do a few sheets of generic colours for British infantry in the War Of The Spanish Succession, and so I did. I have now added a small sheet of post-1707 colours too. The cipher of Queen Anne is on many of them.







This is a shot of Simon Miller's troops with some of these flags:
