Easter 2020 by Magyar Posta

Magyar Posta commemorates Easter, Christianity's key feast, with a definitive stamp. Adorned eggs from Zengővárkony's Art on Eggs Museum, marking its 20th anniversary, feature on the stamp and its first day cover. Designed by Péter Nagy and produced at Pátria Printing House, the stamp is available at Filaposta, specialist services, select post offices, and www.posta.hu. The egg design, 'Oak leaves with spotted acorns', is by Zsuzsanna Katona Stricki, a renowned local egg decorator. The first day cover's egg boasts a sacral pattern, with a prominent red cross and expressive colors conveying Easter's message. Csilla Szendrő Bérczi, a Master of Folk Art, created the cover's egg. The special postmark depicts an egg decoration process. Egg decorating, a vital folk tradition in Zengővárkony, is showcased in the museum's 2000-piece collection.
