Description
This stamp illustrates the designation of Tunis as “Capital of Islamic Culture” for the year 2019. The drawing, with lively and colorful lines, offers an architectural panorama of the medina of Tunis, mixing historic minarets and emblematic monuments (such as the dome of the Central Market). We see silhouettes in traditional clothing, emphasizing the attachment to living heritage and Arab-Muslim identity. This program celebrates the intellectual and spiritual influence of the thousand-year-old city, as well as its historical role in the preservation of the arts and sciences of Islam.
