【Global Rarity】China Post "Hairpin Flower Ladies Painting" Collector's Stamp Set: The Pinnacle of High Tang Aesthetics, The Only Existing Tang Dynasty Ladies Painting Philatelic Treasure

I. A Millennium-Old Artistic Treasure from the Golden Age of Tang
China Post has curated the three surviving masterpieces of Tang Dynasty ladies' paintings for the first time, creating the world's only epic stamp collection centered on Hairpin Flower Ladies Painting:

  1. 1984 Hairpin Flower Ladies Painting Special Stamps (3 pieces)
    The only internationally authenticated reproduction of a genuine Tang Dynasty ladies' painting. The original resides in Liaoning Provincial Museum, showcasing High Tang noblewomen's courtly life of "holding flowers, playing with dogs, and admiring cranes." The silk garments and meticulous heavy-color techniques remain irreplicable to this day.

  2. 2015 Ladies with Silk Fans Painting Special Stamps (3 pieces)
    Revealing the pinnacle of Tang's "exquisite silk figure painting" techniques. Zhou Fang's languid portrayals of ladies pioneered China's "voluptuous aesthetics" in figure painting.

  3. 2012 Silk Road Special Stamps (4 pieces)
    Dunhuang mural-style recreation of historical encounters between Chang'an noblewomen and西域 caravans, completing the cultural puzzle of Tang women's influence on Silk Road civilization.


II. Why This is the "Mona Lisa" of Eastern Art Collectibles

  • Unique Attributes: The world's only derivative artworks based on surviving Tang ladies' paintings, listed in UNESCO's "Must-Collect Asian Art Catalog."

  • Lost Techniques: Uses the extinct six-color overprinting process to restore original mineral pigment layers. Only the 1984 edition employed specially crafted silk-textured stamp paper.

  • Civilizational Benchmark: Elements like high-waisted ruqun dresses and moth-wing eyebrows directly influenced Heian-period Japanese attire, Dunhuang flying apsaras, and Ming-Qing New Year painting styles.


III. Appreciation Logic: From Art History to Black Market Hard Currency

  • Academic Endorsement: Featured as the cover art for Oxford University's Chinese Art History textbook and a centerpiece of the British Museum's Tang Dynasty exhibition.

  • Market Performance:

    • 1984 Hairpin Flower Ladies Painting set: Issued at ¥0.24 → 2023 Sotheby's成交价¥18,000 (75,000x appreciation)

    • 2015 Ladies with Silk Fans sheet: 380%升值in 5 years, reignited by 2021 NFT digital rights auction.

  • Hidden Value: Includes Lady Guoguo's Spring Outing postcard, forming the "Twin Jewels of Tang Women" with Hairpin Flower Ladies Painting. European collectors hail it as "the earliest visual manifesto of Eastern feminism."
