Painting by Abdelaziz Ben Mahmoud: Due South

This stamp honors the artist Abdelaziz Ben Mahmoud (1948-2007) through his work entitled “Plein-Sud”. The painting, created in a naive and warm style, captures the essence of the Saharan landscapes of Tunisia. We see a camel harnessed with a colorful palanquin, a draped silhouette and a solitary palm tree against a backdrop of golden dunes.
