You have entered the first site on the Web that was and still is fully dedicated to the fascinating topic of Art on Stamps. Some of the nicest stamps worldwide belong to the Art on Stamp domain, and many of them are of an exceptional quality.
The
above art on stamps mosaic is based on the painting
"The Archduke William in
His Gallery in Brussels", by David Teniers the Younger (1610-1690).
This work of art is exhibited at the Historical Museum of Fine Arts, Vienna. On the left hand
of the the archduke the artist painted himself. But because many of
the original paintings on the wall were gradually replaced by more famous ones,
shown on stamps,
poor David lost his head, which was finally replaced by the
head of the author of this site. Should you by chance have missed seeing the
original head on this painting, then

The images for the entry doors to the Art on Stamps subsites in different languages were taken from the work "From Morocco", a painting by the Swiss artist Heinz Grüter. This work is permanently exhibited in webmaster's personal art and stamps gallery.
