This 30 centimes stamp from the Republic of Rwanda was issued in 1973 for the International Philatelic Exhibition IBRA München ’73. It reproduces a Renaissance portrait painting by Lucas Cranach the Younger (1515–1586), noted for his detailed depictions of German nobility and refined portraiture. The design shows a finely dressed woman in elaborate Elizabethan attire, highlighting Cranach’s mastery of costume detail. The stamp belongs to a larger set featuring European art masterpieces, underlining Rwanda’s strong thematic issues of the 1970s aimed at collectors worldwide.
