Jamaica, 1900-1901 Llandovery Falls Pictorial

Jamaica · 1900 · 1d

This definitive stamp features a bicolored design depicting the Llandovery Falls, a well-known waterfall in the parish of St. Ann, Jamaica. The central vignette of the falls is printed in black, framed by a carmine-rose border that includes the country name, denomination, and the word 'POSTAGE'.

Issued during the reign of Queen Victoria, this stamp was part of Jamaica's first pictorial series, which aimed to showcase the island's natural beauty and move away from solely monarch-based designs.
