Photograph of the Missouri state flag flying outdoors against a clear blue sky. The flag features three horizontal stripes: red at the top, white in the middle, and blue at the bottom. In the center is the Missouri state seal, encircled by a ring of 24 white stars, representing Missouri's status as the 24th state. The seal is supported by two grizzly bears and contains a shield divided into sections, featuring symbols such as the crescent moon, a grizzly bear, and the U.S. coat of arms. The Latin motto Salus Populi Suprema Lex Esto ('The welfare of the people shall be the supreme law') is inscribed within the seal.
