Issued by Rwanda, this 50 centimes stamp features “Marie et l’Enfant” by G. David, portraying the Madonna and Child with attendant angels in a serene Renaissance-style composition. Released to commemorate the Interpol Centenary (1874–1974), the issue uniquely blends sacred European art with a global commemorative theme. The warm gold and deep black palette gives the stamp strong visual depth and classic appeal. Popular among both religious art topical and fine-art painting collectors, it is a standout piece from Rwanda’s culturally rich 1970s issues. A desirable addition for thematic, art, or African philately collections.
