This card from Praha Czech Republic came to my mailbox today. From official Postcrossing, it was sent on 27 October 2014 and was missent to Thailand. This is my first time receiving a missent card, I am so excited about this. Martina in her card wrote about this card and how beautiful the warm sunlight suits the town very well.
"Prague is the capital and largest city of the Czech Republic. It is the fourteenth-largest city in the European Union. It is also the historical capital of Bohemia." WIKI
I was extremely excited to receive this beautiful stamp of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, from the Czech Republic, issued in 2011. I find the design especially beautiful - not just a simple portrait or profile, but instead an active image of this vibrant personality in motion, conducting, superimposed over an image of the original score to Don Giovanni. It even illustrates what a clothing dandy Mozart was, with the fine frock and lacy cuffs and the Prague's Estates Theatre in the background. Such an art!
