Anticipation is the most beautiful joy, and this also applies to the days and weeks that precede the celebrations at the end of the year. That is why Luxembourg Post devotes its festive stamp issue to such small, but pleasant things that raise the festive mood as walking in the snow, visiting the Christmas market, a toboggan race, or building a snowman.
The issue was designed and illustrated by Marie-Isabelle Callier. She works as a painter, and also creates children’s books in which she uses her illustrations to tell everyday stories, but often also historical and cultural stories. Her passion is reflected in the motifs in a lively, atmospheric, natural, and yet enchanting way.
The artist lives and works in Luxembourg. “It was very important to me to show places in the city of Luxembourg that I particularly like and that for me make the magic of Christmas”, says Marie-Isabelle Callier.
