500 years ago the world lost one of its greatest painters, sculptors, architects, designers, engineers and supreme draughtsmen, Leonardo da Vinci, who left a creative legacy of unequalled breadth and brilliance.
The Prestige Stamp book comprises four panes; three containing all twelve stamps and a pane of eight Definitives - 2 x 5p; 4 x 10p and 2 x £1.55 surrounding a central Leonardo self-portrait label. The background to each pane features an example of Leonardo's drawings and paintings.
Each of the four Gold 500 covers carry an image from one of Leonardo's paintings framed by a beautifully intricate 22ct gold blocked design together with an appropriate handstamp. Produced in a numbered limited edition of 500.
