This 50 Lire brown stamp from Poste Italiane features Italia Turrita, the national personification of Italy, crowned with a mural crown symbolizing liberty and civic strength. The allegorical figure stands between olive trees, representing peace and resilience. Part of the definitive “Italia al Lavoro” series, this issue was widely used in the 1950s for regular postal service during Italy’s post-war reconstruction. The engraving captures the neoclassical artistry typical of Italian philately from the period, printed by the Istituto Poligrafico dello Stato in Rome.
