This elegant green 5-cent stamp from the Netherlands features two rearing horses facing each other beneath a softly arched frame. Designed by Hubert Levigne, it belongs to the post–World War II definitive series issued in 1946–1947. The stylized, almost sculptural rendering of the horses symbolizes vitality and renewal—a fitting motif for a nation rebuilding after wartime devastation. The inscription “Nederland” appears along the bottom in clean sans-serif type, reflecting modern Dutch design aesthetics of the mid-20th century.
