(22-02-2021) EASTER OF RESURRECTION 2021
€1.15
The stamp for the Easter 2021 philatelic series features a work by Vitaliy Shtanko. The Ukrainian artist wished to represent the moment in which the Risen Lord on Easter evening appeared to the eleven apostles who were frightened and behind closed doors to show them his hands, feet and side pierced during the passion and to ask them: “Why do questions arise in your hearts?” (Lk 24:38). This is the question that the Lord also addresses to us, especially in this time of pandemic. As with the apostles, he shows us his wounds, a sign of God’s love. Pope Francis has said in his teaching that it is the faithful love of God that helps us to leave our doubts.
