Description

A horizontal tricolour of red-white-yellow (...) defaced with a Burgundy cross on the white stripe – sometimes centred, sometimes offset to the hoist – is usually reported as the flag of the Spanish Netherlands:

Siegel 1912, table 33, Spanische Niederl[ande],
Siegel 1912, table 46, Spanische Niederlande 1737, 1769 (Fladern) (bis 1714) and
Calvo and Grávalos 1983, no. 101, Bandera de las Provincias de Flandes 1520-1648.

Flag of the Spanish Netherlands It is a red over white over yellow horizontal tricolour with a red cross burgundy at the hoist. (Source: [neu32]; p.32, image no.109) I am in doubt, especially about [neu39a], but due to our policy of giving also erroneous reports of flags I send this image, which is based on an image by Sergio Camero.

Klaus-Michael Schneider, 27 & 28 Jun 2009

The same flag, but with either no cross at all or the cross centered, appears on the "The flags of the Belgians through history" plate.

I believe that Neubecker is much more trustworthy than the plate.
