 * Support - Which is probably redundant at this time, but I do so love to vote. I could totally use that image in my Love and Death in Literature class. Am I correct that is a battle standard? It is unclear (to me) in the composition if it square or not. HullIntegrity  \ talk / 15:17, 18 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Can be also a castle pennant (for display on castle towers, etc). Since the source at Stitching the Standard mentions various titles, my speculation is that Leighton didn't title this painting himself. Brandmeistertalk  17:12, 18 March 2015 (UTC)
