100 years International Chess Federation
Are you one of the 605 million people who play chess on a regular basis? As the motto of the International Chess Federation reminds us, “Gens una sumus” (“We are one family”). To celebrate the Federation’s 100th anniversary, a special stamp is paying homage to this universal game. Enjoy the mesmerizing, vividly coloured geometric and abstract chess figures that intersect and overlap harmoniously – just like the precisely calculated moves used to outwit an opponent.
