Paintings on Stamps
* A World Wide Collection of Stamps with Paintings.
* Information for collectors of Stamps or Arts. *
I started my collection after reading of two
Japanese books with the theme 'Paintings on Stamps'. The printings of the stamps are colourfull
and the books includes the whole period of arts. From the ancient
to the modern arts. There is only one little problem.
I can't read the books because the books are written in the language
of his own country. So I decided to collect the stamps for my own
and go on the web.
Interested?
Then give a moment of your time for study up this
page and the other web pages with information about post stamps.

pictures of the stamps. In the list there are only the one which I
have collected or have noticed. Of course there are much mo're stamps
and in the future the missing stamps will appending

In the early years his style was based on cubism and magic realisme,
then he looks to post-impressionisme and para-expressionisme,

The technique which he used are lithography, sculpture, wallpainting,
