great stellated dodecahedron or?

大星型十二面体、それとも?

9 November 1973, Germany
‘Christmas’
design: I. Monson-Baumgart

One more stamp from the same Christmas season, which I had already posted in 2011.  At that time I just thought it is a beautiful stamp – now I notice that this looks very much alike to a Great stellated dodecahedron.  But it is another 2D illusion and still I love it – crisp intaglio print with 70’s colours.

ドイツのクリスマス切手をもう一枚。実は約7年前に一度アップしています。あの時はただ綺麗!と思った。今は、大星型十二面体?、、ん〜、でもよく見ると、これも多面に似せた実在しない立体のイラストです。それでも、カリッカリの凹版と70年代な色の組み合わせ、大好きです。
