Description

Attractive original fabric color flag from the Seoul 1988 Summer Olympics, 40.5 x 27, which features the official emblem of the Games of the XXIV Olympiad. In fine condition.

The Seoul emblem features a sam taeguk, a traditional Korean pattern and visual image that represents Korea. This pattern is widely used to decorate fans, gates of Korean-style homes, artifacts, and folk crafts. The Olympic emblem features patterns in two forms: centripetal and centrifugal. The centripetal motion represents the people of the world coming together in Korea, thus symbolizing worldwide harmony, and the centrifugal motion represents a march onward in search of man’s lasting happiness and prosperity.
