Keyser, von (!) Sandrart, and Rembrandt: they painted militia 'schutterij' and not regular troops. I have studied milita banners in the hope of getting more info on army banners but there's hardly any regularity in it.<br /><br />Depending on the political situation colours like orange were used, but hard rules, sorry ..no. For a full study on militia from an art historical point of view:<br /><br />http://rampjaar.blogspot.com/2010/01/schutterijen-civil-militia.html<br /><br />Also, search my blog with the label 'schutterij' for even more info. <br /><br />The painting Raia posted probably shows Spanish against Dutch.Motorwayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11062094740042788669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4542484829445755799.post-85431313479752523572010-09-11T01:59:33.513-07:002010-09-11T01:59:33.513-07:00For starters: 'De legervlaggen uit den aanvang...For starters: 'De legervlaggen uit den aanvang van den 80-jarigen oorlog', by J.P.W.A. Smit. And my translation of an article in Mars et Historia:<br /><br />http://rampjaar.blogspot.com/2009/11/vaandels-van-het-staatse-leger-i.html <br /><br />In the 1930's HM the Queen finally ordered by Royal Decree the colours of the dutch national flag. A lot of pamphlets and books were written about the fact if it should be orange or red as a first colour with a lot of reference to especially ships flags. These books are mostly in dutch, but contain a lot of info from regional archives, national archives and even tapestry. <br /><br />The use of paintings as a source for vexillology is a study on its own. Unfortunatly ships flags are quite well documented, but when it comes to infantry or marines colours (I use 'colour' for military flags), it's quite different. Again, worth a study of it's own.Motorwayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11062094740042788669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4542484829445755799.post-17786794075189618902010-09-11T01:06:29.936-07:002010-09-11T01:06:29.936-07:00TY Motorway.

In fact it's a study in itself.
