banderole

The banderole was a small flag of yellow silk, with a red moon in the centre, and on the face of the moon a white cross.

Corti made the passage safely, and in the road beyond the moat halted, and drove the staff of his banderole firmly in the ground.

Before his time, the soldiers merely wore a banderole over their steel breast-plates and ordinary dresses.

Usually a flying cherub holds an end of the banderole, and Ferri shows a wingless putto even, flying with no other assistance.
