Horizontally striped design

(Fanciful design!)

image by António Martins, 15 March 2012

There is an image of the letter-of-arms showing a drawing of the flag, this being a rather ancient-looking staff with a long horizontal flag with a ratio of about 1:3 (stripes from top to bottom blue-yellow-red). This is merely a nice drawing and certainly never used like that.
