Enjoy a serene interpretation of the Madonna and Christ child with the Christmas Madonna and Child stamp.
The artwork depicts a watchful Madonna, her head tilted toward the sleeping Christ child resting against her.
She wears a blue cloak and a dark red gown, from which off-white undersleeves emerge at the elbows. A beige veil, reminiscent of a halo, covers part of her light brown hair. Her child appears partially swaddled in beige cloth. The background is brown, and a gold border frames the image.
The Christmas Madonna and Child stamp is being issued as a Forever stamp. This Forever stamp will always be equal in value to the current First-Class Mail one-ounce rate.
