<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">I had to do a bit of research here, but the modern Italian flag only seems to date back to 1797. Portugal’s green and red flag is an even later creation (1911).
We can’t definitively date the colors based on a Flickr photo, but they look older than that to me. The Welsh flag dates to Henry VII, which would be contemporaneous with the book’s publication, but that seems a bit of a stretch. Of course, we may be looking
too closely at this; maybe they just looked pretty or were the colors at hand!<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Was the book ever in Italian ownership, just as a matter of interest? (given the colours).<span style="color:#888888"><br>
