Yevgeny Khaldei
Yevgeny Khaldei ( - October 6, 1997) was a world renowned Red Army photographer, best known for his World War II photograph of a Russian soldier placing the Soviet Union's Red flag atop the Reichstag building in Berlin, signifying the fall of Germany. Celebrated as the image is, it was a reconstruction of a moment that had happened earlier but had been missed by the camera.
