Took to writing again, in French. I wrote an article about the presence of text on flags. What is so seldom present ? Why is generally reviled ? Under what circumstances is it deemed acceptable to text on flags ?
I always focused on the differences between Latin and Arabic writing systems, which play a role on the prettiness of the flag. I talked about the Saudi, Iraqi and Iranian flags as examples of text integration on flags and the role of Islam in the development of calligraphy
Also, showed the horror that are US states flag
HISTOIRE | Couleurs nationales du drapeau : étendards et oriflammes jadis ➽ https://j.mp/2TPsrqo La réunion des trois couleurs sur le drapeau national de la France ne remonte qu’à la Révolution française.
