Andrew Wyeth’s paintings to debut on Forever stamps
This pane of 12 Forever stamps celebrates the centennial of the birth of Andrew Wyeth (July 12, 1917 – Jan. 16, 2009), one of the most prominent American artists of the 20th century.

This issuance includes stamps that each features a detail from a different Andrew Wyeth
