Star-Spangled Banner Tartan – Unframed Print – PRESENT Edition
A contemporary fine-art tribute to the living 50-star flag in America’s Semiquincentennial year.
Designed in Arbroath, Scotland — birthplace of the Declaration of Arbroath — and printed to museum standards, this unframed giclée print transforms the opening verse of America’s national anthem into a vibrant tartan created for the nation’s 250th year.
The Tartan250 PRESENT Edition celebrates the living colors of today’s Star-Spangled Banner, woven as a “tartan for the clans” of all 50 states. Each piece is individually numbered and certified, bridging Scottish artistry with American heritage in a vibrant tribute to the enduring promise of liberty.
Available in two sizes:
Medium (20" × 29.8")
Large (24" × 35.8")
Each edition with its own run of 1,776 numbered prints per size.
Colors of Unity — The Story in the Weave
- Star-white pivots shimmer within luminous azure and deep navy fields, representing the 50 united states.
- Scarlet and bright ivory stripes, based on a 13-thread count, honor the original thirteen colonies and the founding struggle for independence.
- A balanced tartan sett holds these elements together in precise symmetry, symbolizing unity, resilience, and hope for the 21st century.
This design is officially registered at the Scottish Register of Tartans, Edinburgh, as “Star-Spangled Banner (Flag of 1814)” — Tartan #13214, linking every print directly to its documented heritage.
Limited Edition and Certification
