English: The Flag of The Bronx, comprising a 17th century Dutch flag with the seal of Jonas Bronck, the borough's namesake superimposed upon it. The American (golden) eagle sitting atop the hemisphere is believed to be facing east to indicate homage to the Old World, while the banner reads the latin "ne cede malis" meaning "yield not to evil things".

The flags design was adopted by the borough in an unofficial capacity in March of 1912, while the alderman of New York officially codified the design on June 29, 1915. reads as follows-

Versions of the flag and seal exist with both stripes superimposed on the seal, or otherwise behind a white background. The official art, contains a white background behind the seal, and an example of this can also be seen in this photo of the Bronx County Courthouse. Graphic standards do not exist for the official colors of the seal, and some City websites use Wikipedia's previous version of the seal as a reference, however several examples with a golden eagle, olive-green hemisphere, golden banner and yellow sun with orange rays on a white sky can be found from from the early 20th century.
