ASCLEPIUS AND HIS DAUGHTER CROSSING THE HEBRUS RIVER

Post by aukepalmhof » Fri Nov 12, 2021 8:33 pm

Romania issued this stamp for the Ninth International Medicine Congress, which shows us Asclepius and his daughter Hygieia crossing the Hebrus river (now Maritsa River named) in a boat, both are standing, but the boat has oars. Of the boat, I have not any information.
