Christmas Madonna and Child Forever Stamps – 2024

THE CHRISTMAS COLLECTION

Madonna and Child

Workshop of Sassoferrato

Forever Stamps

A moment of stillness for the Christmas season.

The story in the design

Mary inclines her head toward the sleeping Christ Child, who rests close against her. A pale veil frames her face, while a deep red gown and blue cloak give the image its warm, traditional character. This peaceful design is a fitting companion to religious Christmas cards and heartfelt seasonal greetings.

One design per booklet, repeated across 20 self-adhesive Forever stamps.
