In January 2013 the
Austrian Post issued a stamp featuring the design which won the contest
"Wertzeichen Europa". The "Wertzeichen Europa" contest was
organized in collaboration between the newspaper "Die Presse" and the
Austrian Post in the form of a media series subtitled "20 reasons to love
Europe". Twenty visual designers were invited to submit. The results were
presented in "Die Press" and then evaluated by a group of experts.
The winning design of the competition by Bruce Mau and Elvira Barriga entitled
"Diversity in Unity” is represented by the stamp.
I'd really like to visit this museum. I love the postcard, but I must say that the stamp is even more beautiful. Thanks for sharing!
