This media file captures a replica of the historic Samara Flag, displayed vertically in a clear glass exhibition case. The flag features horizontal stripes of maroon-red (top), white (middle), and light blue (bottom). A prominent, ornate cross is centrally placed on the white stripe, embellished with gold embroidery and containing two painted icons or religious figures. Attached to the top-left corner of the flag are several decorative ribbons. A white ribbon displays Cyrillic text, partially readable as "ЕСКИ ЗАГЕТ" and "19 ЮЛИ 1877" (July 19, 1877). Below it, a maroon ribbon also bears Cyrillic text, including "1876". A light blue ribbon is also visible. These ribbons likely denote honors or historical events associated with the flag. The flag is housed in a white-framed display case, with reflections of a tiled ceiling, light fixtures, and people (presumably museum visitors) visible on the glass surface. Adjacent to the flag on the display case, text in both Bulgarian and English identifies the artifact as "The Samara flag (replica produced by M. Maletski)". The accompanying text further explains that the flag is associated with the Bulgarian Volunteer Corps (Българското опълчение) and became famous during battles in Stara Zagora (July 19, 1877) and Shipka (August 11, 1877). It mentions Lieutenant Colonel Pavel Petrovich Kalitin, who heroically saved the flag, and its subsequent award by Prince Alexander Battenberg in 1880. The scene depicts a museum or exhibition setting in Stara Zagora, Bulgaria, highlighting a significant historical artifact related to Bulgarian liberation history.
