This flag is wrong, the « union- flag» Norway and Sweden shared at that time, had the nickname « the herring- sallad». In upper, inner corner, the Norwegian colours where shown, that means that the blue cross is missing in the middle of the white cross in the flag. The Norwegian colours are « red, white and blue»!
