Description

A beautiful philatelic series showcasing Romania's finest historical religious architecture listed under the UNESCO World Heritage program. Designed by architect Gh. Leahu, these stamps feature a subtle watercolor sketch style that gives them a distinct artistic character. The set includes the world-famous painted monasteries of Bucovina, the Horezu monastery, and the unique fortified architecture of Transylvania. In person, these miniatures look exactly like hand-painted pages taken directly from an artist's notebook.
