About the Flag of Alegre

This is the flag of the municipality of Alegre in the state of Espírito Santo (Brazil). The designer of this flag was the heraldist Prof. Arcinóe Antônio Peixoto de Faria but there is unfortunately no other background information about this flag. Alegre is located at the far south of the state of Espírito Santo close to the border with the state of Rio de Janeiro. The original of this flag is at www.spponline.com.br/ambiente/band.htm.
