U.S. Flag Orientation Guide - Horizontal vs Vertical Display #98295 (License: Personal Use)

This image illustrates the official U.S. flag configurations: the traditional horizontal display with 13 alternating red and white stripes and a blue canton of 50 white stars, alongside its vertical counterpart used for wall mounting or parade banners. In vertical display, the canton remains at the top left when viewed from the front, ensuring proper respect and adherence to the U.S. Flag Code. Both versions maintain precise proportions and color standards as defined by federal guidelines.
