Description
This high face value stamp pays homage to the painter Noureddine Khayachi (1918-1987) through his work entitled “Hannana”. The painting represents an intimate scene where a woman (the hannana) applies henna to the face of a young bride in a traditional setting (mashrabiya window, earthenware tiles).
Khayachi is considered the painter of Tunisian traditions and intimacy. His work documents with almost ethnographic precision the rites of beauty and the daily life of urban families, elevating these traditions to the rank of major artistic subject.
