Auto brand logo
A friend of mine asked me what auto brand had two flags in it and on the right flag a french lotus...
It was a quiz question
My guess: Venturi

Ok, a little trivia quiz.
Wonder where the Bowtie emblem came from? Mr Chrevrolet (I guess that was his name?) was in France visiting someone and saw that emblem on a pattern of wallpaper, and the rest is history.

Not quite - along with the BowTie logo, the Crossed Flags have been a Chevy performance badge of honour for decades...
