Emilio Sanchez 2021

Celebrate the art of Emilio Sanchez (1921–1999) with four Forever stamps featuring his colorful architectural lithographs and paintings: “Los Toldos” (1973), “Ty’s Place” (1976), “En el Souk” (1972), and “Untitled (Ventanita entreabierta)” (1981). Best known for his architectural works, Sanchez used light and shadow to emphasize the abstract geometry of his subjects, drawing inspiration from his Cuban heritage and his long life in New York City. Antonio Alcalá served as art director and designer for the pane of 20 stamps.
