Description of the flag

The cover of Vexillacta [vxl] #12 (June 2001) shows a painting by Pierre Thévenet (1870-1937), entitled Bruxelles - Porte de Namur - 21 juillet 1932. The 21st of July is the National Day in Belgium. On the main building represented on the painting are hoisted:

  • the flag of Belgian Congo
  • the national flag of Belgium ('Belgian square', with proportion 13:15)
  • the flag of the municipality of Brussels (red with a green border)
  • the flag of the municipality of Ixelles (horizontally divided green-white).
