Christmas is coming and Slovenia Post revealed a much anticipated Christmas 2020 issue that consists of two festive stamps. The first item shows the stylized image of the birth of Christ or the Holy Family depicting the Mother of Christ Mary and Father Joseph. And the second stamp is devoted to the traditional Christmas bakery – gingerbreads.
The Mother of Christ Mary featured on the first stamp is presented in red, which is supposed to represent life force, including passion. It means sensuality and warmth, which are the characteristics of every mother. Father Joseph is presented in blue, which is supposed to signify reason, peace, and wisdom. The color expresses optimism, joy, and holiness.
The second stamp features gingerbreads – traditional Christmas cookies that are often hung on Christmas trees. These cookies are designed with the help of models, and decorated with colored sugar glazes. In the past gingerbreads not only had a decorative character but were especially appealing to young people, who created a festive abundance with them.
