LUXEMBOURG ROYAL FAMILY HONORED WITH 2 NEW COMMEMORATIVE STAMPS!

On the separate stamp from the issue Her Royal Highness Maria Teresa is depicted. The Grand Duchess of Luxembourg made Luxembourg the country of her destiny when she married Henri, then Hereditary Grand Duke, on 14 February 1981. Visionary, modernist and active, she has developed her role as a committed humanitarian, with a desire to show the most authentic aspects of Luxembourg.

In June 1997, the Grand Duchess became a UNESCO Goodwill Ambassador, a pioneer of microfinance and UNICEF’s “Eminent Advocate for children”, focusing her work on children orphaned by AIDS and on child soldiers.

On the second stamp Princess Alexandra and Prince Sébastien are shown.
