Christmas - End of Year Celebrations

The Christmas stamps for 2019 feature a classic motif of the decorated tree. A work by Anita Wünschmann. Upon closer inspection, you’ll notice it’s a collage, a composite image made of individual pieces of paper and other materials.

Fragments are used in this technique to form something new, as a whole. In a period where many images are computer-generated, this traditional production of artistic motifs, where craftsmanship is clearly apparent, is not only uniquely creative, but also has the capacity to inspire observers.
