On 6th December I got five postcards from Austria.
One of them shows a Christmas illustration by Minna Lehväslaiho. Minna Lehväslaiho is an artist from Finland who is mainly focused on postcard illustrations. In 2019 she was the Finnish Postcrossing Friends Association's Artist of the Year.
Like common in recent years one of the Austrian Christmas stamps shows a work of classic art and this year's stamp shows Gerrit Dou's painting Girl with a Candle at a Window from the collection of the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna. Gerrit Dou was a Dutch artist and a student of Rembrandt. This stamp was issued on 26th November 2021.
Thank You very much Anita!
