The Cathedral of Our Lady is a Roman
Catholic cathedral in Antwerp, Belgium. The cathedral is on the list
of World Heritage Sites. It is one of the ‘Belfries of Belgium and France’.
The Belfries of Belgium and France are 56 bell-towers,
built between the 11th and 20th centuries. They are mostly found in town
centers, and connected to the local town hall or church. At their time, the
Belfries represented the growing importance of cities.
The Royal Meteorological Institute of Belgium (IRM) celebrated
its 100th anniversary in 2013. For this occasion Belgian post issued four thermo
sensitive stamps depicting the four seasons of the year.
The foliage of the trees on the stamps is green if you puts a finger on the
stamp and heat it up, the green layer disappears showing the tree in one of the
four seasons. This stamp depicts summer.
