The dark blue field bears the state coat of arms: two female figures (Liberty and Justice) flanking a shield with a Hudson River sunset scene.
The seal shows an eagle and shield representing American strength and New York's heraldry. The shield contains symbols representing commerce, agriculture, and freedom. New York adopted this flag in 1901.
