The Latvian flag flies proudly on the city's fortified walls, symbolizing the country's sovereignty and its place in European navigation. The intricate details of the engraving reveal the intricacies of urbanism and trade during this period, with vessels of various shapes and sizes navigating the waters, and the vibrant colors adding a touch of elegance to the scene.
