Confederate Artillery Battle Flag – 38×38 Inch Square with White Border – Premium Cotton Civil War Replica
Army of Northern Virginia Artillery Flag – Square Cotton Embroidered Design
This 38×38 inch square Confederate Artillery Battle Flag is a faithful reproduction of the battlefield flags flown by artillery units in the Army of Northern Virginia under General Robert E. Lee. The white-bordered square design became a battlefield standard after the First Battle of Manassas (Bull Run), where early flag confusion led to dangerous misidentifications.
Smaller square flags like this were carried by artillery and cavalry for maneuverability, while larger variants were used by infantry formations. This flag embodies the bold Southern defiance and historic battlefield visibility of Confederate artillery commands.
