The All-Russian drawing competition of a postage stamp and a greeting postcard for New Year and Christmas among professional artists has already been held for 8 years. In total, the organizers received more than 350 contest entries made in various techniques. Based on the Competition winners’ drawings, two New Year postage stamps have been issued.
The postage stamp presents an artwork by Anastasia Lyashenko: the symbol of the coming year - a red horse against the background of a mailbox with a New Year's pattern and a matryoshka doll.
The composition of the souvenir pack in cover “Happy New Year! (2nd form of issue)” includes a sheet of stamp with 8 stamps and a coupon №3566-I “Happy New Year! Red Horse”, painted metallic blue.
