This print titled "Candia, 1838" takes us back to a significant moment in maritime history. From the renowned publication "A Display of the Naval Flags of All Nations" this image showcases the intricate design and symbolism behind naval flags. The red and white colors dominate the composition, representing national identity and sovereignty. The flag displayed here belongs to Greece, specifically Crete, during the 19th century. It serves as a powerful emblem of their naval prowess and involvement in warfare at that time. The bicolour pattern adds depth to its visual appeal while also highlighting its significance within naval warfare. Engraved with precision by Fisher, Son & Co. , London in 1838, this print exemplifies their commitment to capturing historical moments accurately.
