Issued by Vatican City in 1963, this 10 Lire stamp commemorates the centenary of the Red Cross (1863–1963). The design, created by Emilio Greco, depicts the biblical parable of the Good Samaritan, symbolizing compassion and mercy—core values shared by the Red Cross movement. Printed in deep carmine, it carries the Latin inscription “Samaritanus Misericordia Motus Est” (Luke 10:33), meaning “The Samaritan was moved with compassion.” A striking piece combining religious art, humanitarian ideals, and philatelic history, this stamp is a must-have for collectors of Vatican issues and Red Cross commemoratives.
