Issued by Switzerland in 1989, this commemorative stamp celebrates the 100th anniversary of the University of Fribourg (1889–1989). The design features classical sculptural representations of Helvetia, symbolizing Swiss identity, education, and cultural heritage. Designed by Fred Bauer and printed by Courvoisier, the stamp combines academic commemoration with fine artistic engraving. Its elegant bronze-toned imagery reflects Switzerland’s tradition of honoring institutions through art-inspired philatelic issues. A notable thematic piece for collectors of education, universities, and allegorical figures.
