Sunday Stamps | Russian Artists

Galina Pavlovna Vishnevskaya (Галина Павловна Вишневская), 1926 – 2012) was a Russian soprano opera singer and recitalist. The stamp was issued in 2014, and belongs to the series Holders of Order "For Merit to the Fatherland - 2014.

I received it on this postcard, sent by Eduard (Russia).

In 2017 I received one stamp from the same series, but issued on 2017. It features Russian ballet artist Maya Mikhailovna Plisetskaya (Майя Михайловна Плисецкая), 1925 –  2015.

This is stamp for Sunday Stamps. Today's theme is one of my favourite on stamps: Women.

    I find Russia to be a country of incredible contrasts. Nice to see these talented, accompllished women being celebrated on stamps.
