The British Flag (Union Jack) and the Bulldog – A Symbol of British Resilience on the Frontline, Used by British Soldiers During World War II. Linen Fabric. Made in Ireland, 1940s. Extremely Rare Example.
During the war, the bulldog was often added to the British flag to represent the quintessential British character—stubborn, strong, and never surrendering. Prime Minister Winston Churchill was frequently compared to a bulldog due to his strong and determined leadership. Over time, the bulldog became an unofficial national symbol through its frequent appearances in British art, literature, and media. The image was used in propaganda, sports mascots, and other forms of popular culture.
