Detail

I don’t fully understand why there should be a golden leopard on a golden coat of arms?
Dirk Schönberger, 31 January 2000

The legal wording «gold image of coat of arms» is apparently to be enforced this way: with the blue ribbon still visible as such, all the rest to be rendered in a yellow on red silhouette, and the charges of the coat of arms to be shown golden lined black on yellow — note the two shades of yellow (golden and yellow proper) and the way the coat of arms is depicted using normal yellow for heraldic gold, while on the flag image it is changed to dark yellow.

Standard of the Governor

At the end of 90 acceptance of standard the governor was extended. Such standards were accepted in the Vladimir area.
Sergey Filatov, 10 October 2005

Most of these flags are squarish (about 11:12), rigid and fringed variants of the region (Governors) or Republic (Presidents) flags with the regional emblem over all.

Previous flag

Old flag image by Arcady A. Petrov and Pascal Gross, 26 Apr 1999

I have no information about the status of the plain red flag with coat of arms but, considering that the adoption date of the new flag is 28.04.99, one could guess that it was simply the official flag until that date.
Pascal Gross, 02 February 2000

The [former] flag of Vladimir oblast is very similar to the Vladimir city: red with coat of arms in center. The coat of arms is the crowned lion. Around shield there’s a golden wreath with ribbon and above shield there’s a imperial golden crown.
Jaume Ollé,, 24 April 1999

According to Mr. Arcady A. Petrov, from the Vladimir oblast website, the ratio is 1:2.
Pascal Gross, 26 April 1999
