The title alone sets this picture apart, presenting a flag as a survivor of a full century of weather, wear, and national change. That claim invites viewers to picture the many years it has flown. Images like this were common in the decades around a national anniversary, when printmakers and illustrators used the flag as shorthand for endurance and civic pride. What stands out here is that the flag itself is the whole subject, with the title carrying the story that a crowd or battle scene might otherwise tell.
