Best Europa stamp 2025

Norway

The 2025 Best Europa stamp has been announced by PostEurop in this press release.

Norway (stamp 1) is the winner of the 2025 Best Europa stamp contest organized by PostEurop. The Netherlands finished second and Greece (3€ value) is third.

  1. NORWAY
  2. THE NETHERLANDS
  3. GREECE

The designer tells about the image: “I have tried to recreate how the objects have been frozen, and how they have gradually emerged. The images are first  processed, then printed out and then frozen in an ice bath. I have then photographed in the studio while the ice melts and the motifs emerge. This is a visual move in addition to reinforcing the theme, namely what appears when the ice melts.”
