Envelope "The Crimean bridge encore!"

Description:

The illegally built Crimean bridge so far connects the temporarily occupied Ukrainian Crimean Peninsula with russia. Since the full-scale war initiated by russia on February 24, 2022, the bridge had been actively used by the occupiers to reinforce their army. The October 8, 2022 explosion on the Crimean Bridge, which partially destroyed the bridge, debunked the myth of its incredible durability and protection. Ukrainian artist Yurii Shapoval’s fantasy about the inevitable fate of the bridge across the Kerch Strait is embodied in the sketch for the postage stamp “The Crimean Bridge encore!” Apart from the main subject, the stamp contains several interesting details and hints: a cigarette butt in the hand of the heroine, as a symbol of the fact that the occupants often suffer from smoking in forbidden places; an enemy passenger car flying into the abyss, losing its looted property, among which is even a washing machine; the Bayraktar, flying “accidentally” over the bridge; a broken enemy tank, which was crossed by the occupants to the front in a column.
