Sicily, from Flags of All Nations, Series 2 (N10) for Allen & Ginter Cigarettes Brands 1890

This chromolithograph, part of the *Flags of All Nations* series, depicts the flag of Sicily. The intricate design features a red flag with the coat of arms of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies. The coat of arms is a gold shield with multiple quartered sections, each representing a different dynasty or kingdom that ruled over Sicily. The flag is shown waving in the wind, with a ship sailing on the sea in the background. The image was created in 1890 by Allen & Ginter, a well-known cigarette company, for their trade cards. The artwork exemplifies the use of chromolithography in commercial advertising of the late 19th century.
