Issued by Deutsche Bundespost in 1980, this 50 Pfennig stamp honors the German painter Anselm Feuerbach (1829–1880), a leading figure of 19th-century classical art. The design reproduces his serene painting of a seated woman gazing toward the sea, evoking calm introspection and classical balance. Released on the centenary of Feuerbach’s death, the issue celebrates his refined style and contribution to German Romantic-Classicism. A beautifully printed tribute blending art and memory, it remains a sought-after item for art-themed collections.
