Description
This stamp reproduces a painting by Hédi Khayachi (1882-1948) showing the monumental entrance to the famous Café des Nattes in Sidi Bou Saïd, with its white steps and Andalusian architecture.
Khayachi, portrait painter of the Beylical court, also excelled in urban landscapes. This painting immortalizes a mythical place of Tunisian culture and tourism, bathed in a soft light which highlights the serenity of the blue and white village. It is a tribute to protected architectural heritage.
