Facts about the flag of Iceland
Date adopted: 19 June 1915
Designer: Matthías Þórðarson
Symbolism: The blue represents the Atlantic Ocean, the white represents the snow and ice covering Iceland, and the red cross symbolizes the island's volcanic fires and its connection to Norway.
- Pantone colours: Blue 286 C, White, Red 1795 C
- Aspect ratio: 25 : 18
- Hanging protocol: The flag is typically hung with the blue field on the left and the red cross outlined in white centered, with the cross extending to the edges; when hung vertically, the red cross should remain centered with the white outline, and the blue field should be on the observer's left.
- Design pitfall: A common mistake is reversing the colors of the cross or misaligning the white outline, which can distort the flag's distinctive Nordic cross design.
