Sunday Stamps | Les Rencontres d'Arles


The EUROMED postal theme in 2023 was Mediterranean Festivals. France issued a stamp about the photographie festival Les Rencontres d'Arles.

The stamp is based on a photograph by Alessandro Mosalini. It shows a visitor looking at a photograph by Mitch Epstein, exhibited at the Montmajour Abbey during the summer of 2022.

Today's theme in Sunday Stamps is Warm Vacation Locations. I hope it looks warm enough to you!

  3. The photograph's subject contrasts nicely with the sunset and onlooker's colours.

  5. I thought a woman was looking out a window at a disco dancing man in tight white pants! Which would make a very strange stamp theme.
