Armee Museum - Swedish Army - digitalized some of the works by Olof Hoffman, who in 1677 was hired to draw and paint military standards etc captured by the Swedes. His work, done during 1677-1709, was published in 20 volumes, and about half have been digitalized - https://digitaltmuseum.se/search/?aq=text%3A%22olof%22%2C%22hoffman%22&context=photograph&o=0&n=272 although not yet the Polish-Lithuanian, Cossack and Muscovy-Russian military flags
