Yevgeny Khaldei was a Russian photojournalist and documentary photographer who documented Soviet military campaigns and industrial development from the 1930s through the Cold War era. His most iconic image, the Soviet flag raised over the Reichstag in Berlin in 1945, became a symbol of Soviet victory and has been widely reproduced. Khaldei worked primarily in black and white photography, capturing both propaganda and frontline reportage with a formal compositional precision. His archive spans wartime combat documentation, post-war reconstruction, and state-sanctioned industrial subjects.
