From the book "A Display of the Naval Flags of All Nations" published by Fisher, Son & Co. in London during 1838, this image showcases the Portuguese flag and its rich maritime heritage. The flag proudly displays Portugal's national colors - green and red - against a crisp white background. Its design represents not only sovereignty but also the country's naval prowess during the 19th century. The intricate engraving captures every detail of this emblematic banner, highlighting its significance in naval warfare. Amidst the backdrop of an armillary sphere, symbolizing Portugal's contributions to astronomy and science, this print evokes a sense of exploration and discovery that defined Portuguese identity at that time.
