The image is a close-up of a postage stamp from the Soviet Union
The image is a close-up of a postage stamp from the Soviet Union. The stamp features a painting of a forest scene with two figures. One figure, dressed in a red garment, is riding a horse, while another figure in blue and white clothing stands beside it. The stamp has Cyrillic text at the top and bottom. The text at the top reads "ГОСУДАРСТВЕННАЯ ТРЕТЬЯКОВСКАЯ ГАЛЕРЕЯ МОСКВА" which translates to "State Tretyakov Gallery Moscow". The text at the bottom reads "ПОЧТА 4 КР СССР 1975" which translates to "POST 4 Kopecks USSR 1975". The bottom of the stamp also includes "Ф. А. ВАСИЛЬЕВ • ДОРОГА В БЕРЕЗОВОМ ЛЕСУ" which translates to "F. A. Vasilyev • Road in a Birch Forest". The stamp is affixed to a blue, textured surface, possibly felt. There is no depiction or indication of the city of Sokol, Russia in this image.
