Stamps representing paintings from the Lascaux caves are being issued by La Poste.
The stamps, designed by artist Elsa Catelin, will not only have a Dordogne subject but will also be printed in the department.

Every year, La Poste selects 50 subjects from around 1,000 ideas. Last year, Marianne was celebrated on a series of stamps.
