Virginia State Flags - Made In USA

Virginia Flag

The Seal of the Commonwealth of Virginia is the official seal of the Commonwealth of Virginia, a U.S. state. The state flag of Virginia consists of the obverse of the seal against a blue background.

A state flag was first adopted at the beginning of the American Civil War in April 1861, readopted in 1912, and standardized by the General Assembly in February 1950. The standing allegorical female figure of virtue is shown having vanquished tyranny, symbolized by a fallen king at her feet. She has an exposed breast in the manner of classical depictions of Amazons, making this the only state flag in the U.S. depicting a form of nudity.

The motto, "Sic semper tyrannis", means "Thus always to tyrants". The flag may be decorated with a white fringe along the fly edge; this is usually done when the flag is displayed indoors.
