Austria: Hundertwasserhaus in Vienna

Last Tuesday I got four cards: one from Austria, one from Germany and two from China.

The card from Austria shows the Hundertwasserhaus in Vienna. The Hundertwasserhaus in an apartment building constructed between 1983 and 1985. Idea and concept were created by Austrian artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser and architect Joseph Krawina was the co-creator.


Used were two stamps of Austria's last definitive series about Heraldy (from set of fourteen) (issued 01-07-2018). These two show parts of the coat of arms of Vorarlberg and Lower Austria. The series was replaced this year by a new one about accessories and ornaments of traditional costumes.


Thank You very much Marcel!
