Issued by Spain (España) in 1961, this elegant pair commemorates the work of celebrated Spanish artist Mariano Fortuny y Marsal. The 1 Peseta stamp depicts an allegorical classical figure playing the flute, rendered in Fortuny’s romantic, symbolist style. The 50 Céntimos value reproduces “Fantasia”, showing musicians at a piano with ethereal figures floating above, capturing Fortuny’s imaginative and theatrical artistry. Printed by F.N.M.T. (Fábrica Nacional de Moneda y Timbre), these stamps are finely engraved and highly regarded by collectors of art, Spanish classics, and cultural thematics. A desirable mid-20th-century art issue from Spain, ideal for thematic and national collections.
