[A/The] flag of the Chinese "Black Flag Army," a splinter remnant of
the Taiping Rebels, is apparently on display at the Musee de l'Armee,
Paris, having been captured in the 1884-1885 Sino-French War (see
Wikipedia: Black Flag Army). Confusingly, none of
the flag - excepting the very thin border - is black.
