Issued in 1949, this 10-centime Luxembourg stamp commemorates the Secours International aux Intellectuels — an international aid initiative supporting artists, writers, and scholars affected by postwar hardship. The design, engraved by Jules Engelhard and drawn by Ed. Elshorpe, beautifully depicts painters and sculptors at work, symbolizing the creative spirit and the rebuilding of intellectual life in Europe after World War II. Printed in deep red, the stamp captures Luxembourg’s commitment to cultural and intellectual solidarity.
