That B&W of Charlene and the Twins from their first photocall in the Hospital is just so beautiful.

^^^ previous that 's a lovely picture of P Charlene they used for the stamp. She looks regal and sophisticated. The flowers in the background are proteas, the National Flower of South Africa. Although some may find them not particularly beautiful, they are extremely hardy and stay fresh long after the roses and lilies have wilted. They come in a wide variety and are indigenous to the Western Cape.

Proteas take some getting used to, I admit. TSH's enormous wedding cake had a profusion of proteas, and I didn't find it at all pretty to look at!

On the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the Monegasques Red Cross a nice stamp with portraits of Prince Louis, Prince Rainier, Princess Grace and Prince Albert has been released:

lazuli, I am glad that you like the stamp collection! When I first saw the different pictures of the past Sovereign Princes and Princesses, I also was impressed. This was a nice way to learn royal history: in a pictorial style.

Interesting indeed. Monaco has a long history, nice to see it depicted in this manner. But there are more recent stamps too that are not shown, right?
