Order of the Blessed Virgin Mary Flag Animation 4K | Knights of Saint Mary

This 4K flag animation showcases the Order of the Blessed Virgin Mary, also known as the Knights of Saint Mary, a military order founded in 1261 under the rule of Pope Urban IV. Known as the Frati Gaudenti or "Jovial Brothers," the order was based on the Augustinian rule but allowed members to marry and retain personal property, a unique feature among medieval military orders.

The order’s primary mission was pacifying factional strife in Lombard cities, often mediating between Guelphs and Ghibellines. Prominent members included Loderingo degli Andalò and Catalano di Guido, who governed Bologna and Florence during times of civil discord. Despite their efforts, the order gained a reputation for carelessness with vows and was eventually suppressed by Pope Sixtus V in 1558.

This 4K animation is perfect for history enthusiasts, medieval studies, and flag animation collections, highlighting the unique legacy of the Knights of Saint Mary.
