Flag of Scotland - Saint Andrew’s Cross (Saltire) | Historical Symbol #1796807 (License: Personal Use)

This image displays the heraldic version of the Flag of Scotland, known as the Saltire, where a white diagonal cross (X-shape) appears on a black field-commonly used in monochrome contexts like emblems or print. While the modern national flag uses white on azure blue, the black-and-white variant preserves the design’s symbolic integrity for official and historical representation. The cross honors Saint Andrew, Scotland’s patron saint, who was martyred on an X-shaped cross.

Used in governmental, cultural, and historical contexts-especially in heraldry, official documents, monochrome publications, and digital icons-this image serves users seeking accurate depictions of Scottish identity, vexillology, or national symbolism.
