Marianne l'engagée, Letter Verte
France · 2018 · Lettre Verte
This definitive stamp features 'Marianne l'engagée' (Marianne the Committed), a modern interpretation of the French national symbol. The design, by artist Yseult 'YZ' Digan, portrays a determined and forward-looking Marianne, symbolizing the values of the French Republic. This version was used for the 'Lettre Verte' (Green Letter), an eco-friendly, slower domestic mail service.
Issued under President Emmanuel Macron, this series replaced the 'Marianne de la jeunesse' design and was intended to represent a contemporary, active, and committed vision of the French Republic.
