Gonzaga Dinasty flag from around 1328 to 1708 (1708 Mantua was
attribued to Austria). Reconstructed from written description
.Also it is reported as white flag with red Saint George cross.

For the XVIII century a strange flag is reported from several
plates. I know about some variations (depending of the quality of
the pictures). The first one that I saw showed the flag as blue
with narrow red stripes, one on top and one on bottom and with
aparently one head (no double heads - see below). Also in another
plate I noted same flag without figure. Unafortunately in this
era I didn't took notes from the source and they are now
unavailables. The most comoon design is the above one. Attribued
to 1737-1769 (or maybe a little later ?).
