Ali Khouja: “Still Life”
This stamp pays tribute to Ali Khouja (1923-2010), major painter of the Tunis School. The work reproduced is a still life of great sobriety, presenting fish in a cup.
Khouja is known for his refined style, bordering on abstraction. This work celebrates the simplicity of Mediterranean seafood, transfigured by a palette of deep blues and greens. It is an invitation to aesthetic contemplation of everyday life.
