Libya 1984 International Stamp Exhibition 'Philexfrance 89' Souvenir Sheet

Libya · 1984 · 500 Dirhams

This souvenir sheet features the 1834 painting 'Women of Algiers in their Apartment' by French Romantic artist Eugène Delacroix. The stamp itself is a detail from the painting, focusing on one of the figures. The sheet was issued to promote the upcoming 'Philexfrance 89' international stamp exhibition held in Paris.

Issued during the rule of Muammar Gaddafi, this stamp highlights a piece of French art with a North African subject, likely as a nod to the host country of the promoted philatelic exhibition.
