The flag is published in the book Spirits in Sequins:  Vodou Flags of Haiti by Nancy Josephson (p. 25).  She writes “In this small 14″ x 14″ flag, Rockville needed to use the chromolithograph to show the face of the saint.  Note the use of French curves in the border.  This is one of Rockville’s trademarks.”
