Description
Denmark Scott #996–997, issued in 1994, form a used commemorative pair honoring modern Danish painting and abstract art. Issued by Denmark, these stamps reproduce works by two important figures in 20th-century Danish modernism, emphasizing geometry, form, and restrained color palettes.
-
Scott #996 (5.00 kr) reproduces Opstilling (1929) by Vilhelm Lundstrøm (1893–1950), featuring a carefully balanced still life with simplified shapes and muted tones typical of Scandinavian modernism.
-
Scott #997 (15.00 kr) reproduces Komposition Paris (1929) by Franciska Clausen (1899–1986), a bold abstract composition influenced by Cubism and Constructivism, reflecting Denmark’s engagement with the Paris avant-garde.
Both stamps are postally used, with visible cancellations. Colors remain strong, details are clear, and the designs retain excellent visual contrast despite postal use.
A strong pairing for collections focused on modern art on stamps, Scandinavian painters, abstract art, or Danish cultural issues of the 1990s.
