American Flag
This lovely minimalist design is modern yet timeless, and in it we see America —a symbol of freedom and liberty.
The 50 stars on the flag represent the 50 states of the United States of America, and the 13 stripes represent the thirteen British colonies that declared independence from the Kingdom of Great Britain, and became the first states in the U.S.
The colors on the flag represent:
• Red: valor and bravery
• White: purity and innocence
• Blue: vigilance, perseverance, and justice
With over 44 design iterations and over all these years of change —the essence of the American flag’s design has remained the same.
“That even as we hurt, we hoped.
That even as we tired, we tried.
That we'll forever be tied together, victorious.”
— Amanda Gorman, Youth Poet Laureate
