Description
This stamp pays tribute to the “fighter” Hédi Chaker (1908-1953), emblematic figure of the Tunisian national movement and martyr for independence. Represented with the traditional chechia, a symbol of identity and cultural resistance, his portrait overlooks a crowd scene and the national flag, illustrating his role as a charismatic leader within Neo-Destour. The show commemorates his sacrifice and his unwavering commitment to the sovereignty of Tunisia in the face of the protectorate. It is a highly historical subject which is part of the nation's duty of memory towards those who paved the way towards freedom and the construction of the modern State.
