Description
English: Flag of king Matthias Corvinus' "Black Army" 1458 to 1490. The reconstruction is based on a miniature in the Philostratus Chronicle, one of the Corvinas, depicting János Corvinus entering Vienna in 1485. The black lions and stripes were originally white (argent), but the paint of the miniature became oxidised, and the reconstruction shows its current colors.
