Crafted from wool and cotton, this hand-sewn masterpiece measures an impressive 98.4x134 cm and is currently housed in the esteemed collection of the New-York Historical Society in the USA. The flag holds significant historical value as it was created by Mrs. John E. Forbes during the years 1861-63.
