Description
One of the most powerful and historically significant series ever issued by Romania, printed shortly after the December 1989 Revolution. This poignant set commemorates the priceless masterpieces from the National Museum of Art in Bucharest that were caught in the crossfire during the violent uprising. The stamp designs authentically display the tragic state of the canvases, realistically showing bullet holes, tears, and missing fragments. Featuring damaged works by world-renowned masters like Pieter Brueghel ("Spring"), Jan Brueghel, and Ștefan Luchian, this set is both a fine art collection and a profound historical monument.
