This program celebrates 40 years of Tunisian independence (1956-1996). The visual presents a monumental purple block stamped with the date “March 20”, flown over by four white doves against a background of deep blue sky.
The doves represent the four decades of peace and sovereignty. The modern and refined aesthetic of the stamp seeks to illustrate the solidity of the achievements of the nation-state and the constant aspiration towards progress and freedom.
