Description
This work by Gorgi highlights the sun, not only as an element of the Tunisian landscape, but as a vital resource for the nation's energy future. At a time when sustainable development issues were beginning to emerge on the international scene, this 100 millime stamp foreshadows the country's interest in mastering renewable energies. The sun, depicted with a benevolent human face, dominates an architectural structure, symbolizing a desired harmony between human genius and the forces of nature to illuminate and propel the economic growth of the Republic.
