2023 Christmas - MUH Set of 3 Local Value 65c Booklet Stamps

Description: 2023 ChristmasMint Unhinged Set of 2 Embellished Stamps(One from each sheet)Overview Each year, Australia Post releases a Christmas stamp issue, featuring domestic and international card-rate stamps that present both traditional and secular Christmas themes.This year’s traditional Christmas stamp designs infuse some Australian aesthetics into the Christmas story, including the Southern Cross installation and native flower motifs. The mixed media illustrations combine watercolour, gouache, ink and pencil, with a soft yet bright colour palette.The traditional minisheet depicts the dark, holy night that is the scene for the birth of Jesus. The domestic Christmas-card-rate stamp presents Mary looking adoringly upon the baby Jesus, with a golden glow surrounding them both. The three Magi, or wise men, are depicted on the international Christmas-card-rate stamp. The Gospel of Matthew tells the story of three Magi who followed a star from the East (most likely Persia) to Bethlehem, to welcome the newborn King and present him with gifts: gold (both valuable and beautiful), frankincense (a spiritual essence) and myrrh (a sacred anointing oil). The Magi are often presented in three life stages: young, middle-aged and older, though some biblical scholars believe the Magi numbered three to represent the three known continents of Africa, Asia and Europe.The three secular stamp designs are a folksy take on some key traditions that are enjoyed at Christmas time: putting up and decorating a Christmas tree; the giving and receiving of gifts; and, for children, writing to Santa in the hope that their Christmas wishes will be granted. Stamps in this Issue 65c Mary and Baby JesusBased on the traditional Christmas story, Mary is presented watching over the Christ Child held lovingly and protectively in her arms.$3.00 The Three Wise MenAccording to the traditional Christmas story the Maji journeyed to witness the arrival of the Baby Jesus by following the Star to offer gifts of celebration.65c Christmas Tree, with GiftsThe Christmas Tree, first introduced in Europe, was widely adopted as symbolic of the Christmas season and celebrations around the world.
