On Friday I got eight postcards from Austria.
One of them shows the Ice Nativity Scene in Graz. The Ice Natvity Scene is always one of the most popular aspects in the city's Advent celebrations, although it not always survives until Christmas. This card seems to be already a little bit older. At least 1999 is written on the backside, which was just three years after the Ice Nativity Scene was first erected in 1996.
The special postmark is from a Christmas exhibition in Linz and also the stamp shows a painting of the nativity (issued 11-11-2016). The painting was created by the Master of the Rajhrad Altarpiece and is housed in the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna.
Thank You very much Anita!
