Item Description
Grade: VF (Very Fine)Detailed DescriptionThe image is a stock picture only. Since this stamp comes from the Booklet 20, it may be 2-side or 3-side perforated. If you have any question, please check with me before you bid or purchase.Five centuries ago, Jan Gossaert helped bring the genius of the Italian Renaissance to northern Europe. Today, his devotional paintings, rich in symbolism, still vividly evoke the traditions of Christmas. This new Christmas stamp features Gossaert’s 1531 painting Virgin and Child. Draped in purple and blue, the Virgin Mary supports her own head by leaning on one of her hands, an unusual pose that art historians see as a sign of sadness and contemplation. In her other hand, a curly-haired infant Jesus draped in white holds a bunch of red currants, which scholars believe are meant to foreshadow his future suffering. Gossaert’s painting is currently in the collection of the Cleveland Museum of Art. Richard Sheaff was the art director and designer for this stamp. This stamp is being issued as a Forever® stamp.
