PORTUGUESE SHIPPAINTING XVII century

Post by aukepalmhof » Thu Nov 30, 2017 6:50 pm

This stamp is by Navicula and Watercraft Philately given that a Japanese junk is depict, by searching on the net I found that this is wrong, the stamp shows a Portuguese vessel (most probably a galleon) arriving in Japan. The stamp is designed after a painting on a Japanese nanban byobu screen https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanban_art and are shown in Japanese museums.

I found on the net a detail of this painting, only the rigging is partly shown, but after this painting the stamp is designed.
