About this work

Standard of the model of 13.2.1800. Ecru, in the center an oval of two laurel branches bent downwards, held together at the top by a large bow of red-white-blue ribbon. The white band is wider than the other two. On it stands in golden classical capitals: 3DE BATAILLON, and: 3DE HALVE BRIGADE. In the oval a walking lion in natural color with a three-quarter turned head; in the raised right paw a curved sword with a yellow hilt. It walks in a landscape under a lightly clouded blue sky. Parade side: same oval with laurel branches, bow, and inscription. On the red oval in golden classical capitals: VOOR HET VADERLAND EN DE WET.
