Summary

Description
Flag of Italy
used by Italy
current since 9 November 1947[1]
created by
format 2:3
shape rectangular
colours see included flag
other characteristics naval ensign

Civil naval flag of Italy (the military naval flag differs from this one in that the coat of arms has a crown on top of it).

Generated in Inkscape, based on an image at the World Flag Database and information at Flags of the World. Tricolour scheme derived from Image:Flag of Italy.svg.

This flag took me only one day to reconstruct, but it required a profound amount of effort to get all the details into the flag.

This version of the flag, is used for sea usage by commercial ship ↑↑. It differs from the military version because the lion is bringing a book and not a sword and because there is not a big crown above the emblems of the four ancient maritime republics.
