KENTUCKY STATE FLAG HISTORY & MEANING
The Commonwealth of Kentucky became the 15th state to join the United States in 1792; however, the state flag was finalized in 1963. The original flag design was by art teacher Jesse Cox Burgess and adopted in 1918 by the Kentucky legislature.
The seal itself is said to feature the famous frontiersman Daniel Boone, responsible for most of the exploration of Kentucky’s territory, and Henry Clay, Kentucky’s most famous politician. The seal design is attributed to artist and Kentucky politician Nan Gorman, featuring the state motto, "United we stand, divided we fall".
Sprigs of goldenrod, the state flower, is shown beneath the state seal to symbolize the tie between Kentucky’s government and nature.
