Summary

Description

According to Wikipedia, the Puerto Rican flag is a product of an aftervision of the Cuban flag.

"On June 12, 1892, Antonio V�lez Alvarado was at his apartment at 219 Twenty-Third Street in Manhattan, when he stared at a Cuban flag for a few minutes, and then took a look at the blank wall in which it was being displayed. V�lez suddenly perceived an optical illusion, in which he perceived the image of the Cuban flag with the colors in the flag's triangle and stripes inverted."
