Dante Alighieri 700° Anniversario

Series of four stamps

/ Also this year I have the great honor of showing the new series of stamps I designed for the Philatelic and Numismatic Office of San Marino.

The theme is the 700th anniversary of Dante Alighieri’s death, a more classic theme than in past years, but one that we have tried to make original anyway by illustrating some passages from the work that made the poet immortal, the Divine Comedy, through lettering compositions. 

Amor ch'a nullo amato amar perdona
Amor ch'a nullo amato amar perdona
amor ch'a nullo amato amar perdona
Fatti non foste a viver come bruti
Fatti non foste a viver come bruti
Fatti non foste per viver come bruti
E quindi uscimmo a riveder le stelle
e quindi uscimmo a riveder le stelle
e quindi uscimmo a riveder le stelle
