Sunday Stamps: Calligraphy

“Calligraphy” is the theme for this week Sunday Stamps

Calligraphy, the art of beautiful handwriting. The term derives from the Greek words for “beauty” (kallos) and “to write” (graphein) — literally “beautiful writing.” 

Not artistic writing, just handwriting.

Germany – 2022 World of Letters

Not sure if the Chinese characters on the following stamp were handwritten, but I’m including this stamp.

France – 2013 The Year of the Rabbit. The sign of the rabbit is a symbol of longevity, peace and prosperity in Chinese culture. The graphic design is by Chen Jiang while the layout is by Bruno Ghirardelli.

    Anyway, I think I wrote that an origami letter would be really cool to receive.
    Love the rabbit!
