Description

The Refused Designs for the European Flag A collection of 200 rejected proposals for the European flag, published for the first time. In December 1955, the Council of Europe chose a design with 12 yellow stars arranged in a circle on blue background as the new flag of Europe. However, over 200 individual ideas were submitted before this decision, each one representing a unique vision of Europe. These proposals offer a fascinating insight into the European zeitgeist and self-perception during a period of significant unification. The book includes a critical examination of today's nationalisms in Europe by German-French artist and writer Marie Rotkopf, providing context for these historical designs.
