Let's start off our world tour of Olympic participating countries with the host: France
Olivier Ciappa's 2013 version of Marianne and youth
Marianne and stars designed & engraved by Yves Beaujard released in 2008
New versions of these stamps are released every five years by the president. I have yet to receive any 2023 ones
In case you've lost count, France is hosting the Olympics for the sixth time this summer.

I have always been fascinated by the Marianne stamp and its variety. So, always happy to see or get another one.
My northern stamps are here.
Fascinating evolution of the Marianne stamps. I'm also curious to see what the new 2023 design will look like! Will you share it once you receive it?

Those are very nice stamps! And a great take on the theme.

I always enjoy the Marianne stamps variety and theme. Macron chose 'Marianne of the Future' but I, like you, have not seen one in the wild.
