World Stamp Today:
FEBRUARY 13. 2019
Royal Mail issued a set of stamps on February 13, 2019 to commemorate the 500th death anniversary of Leonardo da Vinci.
The stamps designed by Kate Stephens showcase 12 beautiful drawings from the artist’s notebooks.
Instead of featuring well known paintings such as The Last Supper or the Mona Lisa, less famous paintings were chosen to be on the stamps.
These include soft, sfumato portraits, anatomical studies, and botanical sketches.
