Description
This stamp features a symbolic gesture of protection and support for Venetian heritage, combining the architecture of the city with a dynamic composition suggesting human action in the face of the threat of water. The illustration expresses the idea that the preservation of Venice relies on collective mobilization, where human will opposes degradation and forgetting. The message is both cultural and humanist: preserving a city like Venice means defending the creativity, history and shared identity of peoples. In the Tunisian context, this stamp reflects the country's adherence to major international cultural causes and its affirmation that the protection of world heritage is inseparable from dialogue between nations and respect for civilizational heritage.
