This elegant 3 Franc stamp from Luxembourg forms part of the Protection des Animaux (Animal Protection) series, designed to raise awareness for humane treatment of animals. The artwork depicts a gracefully walking horse rendered by Luxembourgish sculptor and painter Auguste Trémont, whose name appears at the bottom left. Printed by Courvoisier S.A., the stamp exemplifies fine craftsmanship and subtle color blending, typical of mid-20th-century European design.

Issued circa 1957, this semi-postal series was created to support animal welfare organizations. The minimalist background highlights the noble form of the horse, symbolizing strength, grace, and the close bond between humans and animals — a recurrent theme in Luxembourg’s charity issues.
