Travel the World of Postage Stamps - Hungarian Goldsmiths' Art - Communion cup of György Rákóczy I, 1670 - Hungary 1970 - Michel Hungary 2630A - my hobby.

Greetings friends!

Looking at the Hungarian Goldsmiths' Art series of postage stamps, issued in Hungary in 1970, the layman will see only vessels made of precious metal, but an inquisitive mind will be able to learn much more, because every cup, every cup and glass contains information about the history Transselvania.

On a postage stamp with a face value of 2,5 Ft - Hungarian forint, we see Communion cup of György Rákóczy I, 1670.

The owner of this chalice György Rákóczy, a descendant of the Transselvanian lords.

There were those in his family who were loyal to the Vatican and there were those who harbored the hope that the Ottoman Empire would reign in the Trans-Selvan lands.

But, this cup speaks of the Christian faith of its owner.

Transselvania, its former part of Hungary, then, in those distant times, was a hot spot.

The Ottomans dreamed of taking possession of it, because it was an excellent springboard for the further expansion of Europe.

Let's take a look at this postage stamp.

For my publications, I do not use stock photographs, it is fundamentally important for me to use photographs that I have made with my own hands for publication and I can name them - authorial work.
