Description: This authentic British postage stamp was issued by the Royal Mail as part of a commemorative series celebrating influential women. The clean square canvas features a black-and-white photograph of Dame Margot Fonteyn looking upward with a warm smile, her hair styled into a classic, neat ballet bun. Hanging to her left is a pair of satin ballet pointe shoes with their ribbons trailing upward into the background scenery. The text displays her name in large, elegant capital letters next to the numeric face value denomination 26. The word EUROPA is cleanly aligned vertically along the upper left-hand margin, balanced by the familiar monochrome silhouette of Queen Elizabeth II in the top right corner. Standard gauge perforations enclose all four edges of the design.
