Naïve watercolour of flags, possibly pre-World War I

Naive watercolour of flags and regimental symbols including the Colours and thistles, by Private Thomas Daly of the Royal Scots, possibly painted before 1914.

Private Daly has cut out national flags from a printed source, and painted the regiment's colours. The flags displayed suggest a date before the outbreak of World War I.
