The Europa 2011 theme is dedicated to forests. This set by San Marino is made up of two values: the €0.60 value represents an age-old lush, flourishing forest, contrasted with the image of the €0.65 value, which shows a pile of tree-trunks as a symbol of man's repeated, uncontrolled and unauthorised exploitation.
The images have been taken in the Teso Forest of the Municipality of San Marcello Pistoiese in the Tosco-Emilian Apennine.
