Summary

Description
English: Maroon-over-blue flag of an unidentified Huguenot leader, used (and captured) in the 1569 Battle of Jarnac. Based on a contemporary watercolor in the Count of Cabra archive, as described by Alfonso de Ceballos-Escalera y Gila. See Comunicaciones del XI Congreso Internacional de Vexilología, 1985, pp. 298–301. White sashes were a mark of the Huguenot movement before, during, and after Jarnac; see N. W., "Le drapeau huguenot", in Bulletin Historique et Littéraire (Société de l'Histoire du Protestantisme Français), Vol. 44, 1895, pp. 671–672.
