Issue:

As Main Topic: The Personality of José Gervasio Artigas is clearly the main topic of the stamp, as it will be of the whole stamps of this permanent serie that will commemorate the 250th Anniversary of his Birth. The personality of José Artigas could be included in wider ones as Uruguayan Personalities, Uruguayan Militars, and of course in one dedicated to National Heroes.

Then, surrounding the main topic, could be found the followings: The first that cames to our mind is History, in particular the History of Southamerica, focus on the Emancipation of Southamerica, or the Liberty of Southamerica, or the Spanish American wars of independence, as José Gervasio Artigas was one of the most notorious figures of that Emancipation. Also the Ideologies associated with him, as Federalism and Liberalism, even a last one centred on his figure called Artiguism, are clearly represented in this stamp. Finally, by his great labour in the Uruguayan Army, Militaria is another topic directly associated with this issue.

Now, regarding the desing of the stamp: It is clear that two topics emerges. The more clear one is the Portrait type of Painting Art, as all the stamps from the Permanent Serie will have the portrait with a Close-up of the Face of José Gervasio Artigas performed by the Artist Miguel Angel Tuala, based in the work "Artigas en la Ciudadela", an Oil Painting of one of the most worldwide known Uruguayan Painters as it is Juan Manual Blanes, accompanied by a quotation from him, so Quotations could be another topic too.

The difference between the stamps of this permanent serie will be, besides the facial value, the colour in which the portrait of Artigas and Quotation is presented, and also the quotation will differ from stamp to stamp. In this case the facial value is 1 UYP, the colour is Blue, and the Quotation is "Sean los orientales tan ilustrados como valientes", that could be translated in english to: "Be the Eastern (Uruguayan People) as learned as brave".

This quotation cames from the Inauguration of the National Library on May 26th of 1816, when Jose Gervasio Artigas, sensitive to the impact of this event in the creation of Uruguayan Nation, ordered that the Watchword of the Uruguayan Army was "Sean los orientales tan ilustrados como valientes".

Finally, in a more symbolic way: The selection of this particular one of the Artigas Quotations, clearly add a link to Culture, Education, Information, of course also Books, Literature, Libraries, and in particular The Uruguayan National Library.

Finally, it is very interesting how José Gervasio Artigas, at that time Leader of the Uruguayan Army, and in a way also Leader of all Uruguayans because of the turbuluent times in which this quotation was coined, could see The importance of have a Cultured People, not only a brave one. He believed in a Nation with people brave to fight, and also an even more important, Aware of why, for, and against whom, to Fight. He did not want a people of followers. He wanted a nation of fully conscious individuals.

Block:

The block: It neither add any other topic, nor reinforce existing ones, as it only shows the inks used in printing the block, and it not use any icon for this.

FDC:

The desing of the First Day Cancelation: Adds the topic Maps, and more in particular Uruguayan Maps, because the First Day Cancelation shows the Map of Uruguay and the Date of Issue of the Release inside it, as it is happening with all the permanent series since 2012.

If you consider that there are another topics in this stamp, that were not spot in this review, you are encouraged to telling me about them, so please do not hesitate to post a comment. I would appreciate your help very much.

Topics:

Issue:

As Main Topic: Architecture is clearly the most representative Topic of the Stamp, that could be also included in a wider Arts.

Then, more in particular it Professionals, the Architects are perhaps more clearly the Main Topic of this Release instead of Architecture itself, and in particular the Uruguayan Architects who could be viewed as inside the Association of Architects of Uruguay, Instittution whose Centenary is celebrated by this Release.

Then, surrounding the main topic, could be found the followings: The first is Centenary, then, as Association of Architects of Uruguay works as the Union of Architects, Labour rights and Unions could be also Topics of this Release, and finally, as focus is put in the Professionals, this issue could be related to a Jobs Topic too.

Now, regarding the desing of the stamp: Besides reinforcing the Topic Architecture by showing a well designed Building, it also reinforce it as it is the Headquarters of the Faculty of Architecture, the Building which was selected for the Picture shown in the Stamp.

 The Headquarters of the Faculty of Architecture was designed by the Architects: Román Fresnedo Siri and Mario Muccinelli, inaugurated in 1948, and declared National Historical Monument on year 2000.

The Faculty of Architecture is one of the Faculties of the University of the Republic, in Spanish "Universidad de la República" or "UdelaR", State and Free University of Uruguay, the most important, oldest, and largest university of the country, with a student body of more than 80,000 students, founded on July 18, 1849 in Montevideo, where most of its buildings and facilities are still located. Then, Topics as State Education, Free Education, inside a wider Education, are tangentially included in this Release.

The design of the Stamp is completed with the Logotype of Association, that is mainly a Ionic Capital of a Column with a Face Sculpted in it Center, that it could made the Release useful for Columns and Sculpture Topics and even the Ionic Order, and also Greek Culture ones.

The last topics identified are Vegetables or Flora because of the Lawn surrounding the building and one Bush that is also shown in the Picture.

Finally, in a more symbolic way: besides that all Centenaries, specially in a Country relatively young as it is Uruguay, reinforces the History, and in this case the Uruguayan History, Topic. I think that the selection of a Picture of the Headquarters of the Faculty of Architecture, and not one of the Headquarters of the Association being honoured, symbolize the Recognition , Gratitude and Attachment of the Association to his House of Study. 

Block:

The block: Although including only the legend and the proof of colour on the right-top corner of the Block, with this last item introduce an item that is not commonly seen in stamps, that is the Compass, or Pair of Compasses, a Technical Drawing Instrument that can be used for inscribing circles or arcs, and as dividers, they can also be used as Tools to Measure Distances, in particular on Maps. Compasses can be used also for Mathematics, Drafting, and Navigation.

FDC:

The desing of the First Day Cancelation: Did not add new topics and only reinforces the Columns, Sculpture, Ionic Order, and Greece Culture Topics, as it only shows, the Logotype of the Association, that as was stated before, could be useful for Collections in the mentioned Topics.

If you consider that there are another topics in this stamp, that were not spot in this review, you are encouraged to telling me about them, so please do not hesitate to post a comment. I would appreciate your help very much.

Topics:

Issue:

As Main Topic: It will be Sports for sure. Perhaps the unusual of this release is that the focus is in Amauter Sport, which is not much seen in Philately. Then going to more specific topics, University Sport will appear first, and then the Uruguayan University Sports League itself, as being commemorated their 100 Years of life.

Then, surrounding the main topic, could be found the followings: First, the Centenary Topic, then also an University Topic or a wider Education Topic, and finally  the combination of Sports and more Formal Education that is one teached in Universities, gives as a connection with Health Topic, or Healthy Activities Topic.

Now, regarding the desing of the stamp: Besides reinforcing Sports Topic in as much ways as possible, it also includes a reference to many paticular Sports with Icons that represent them. The Sports shown in the design are: Indoor Soccer, Volleyball, Hockey, Handball, Football or Soccer, Beach Soccer, Swimming, Tennis, and Basketball.

Another interesting inclusion in the ten icons that shows all the activities of the Uruguayan Sport University League is one that is not considered a Sport, as it is not Physical, that is the Game of Chess.

Diving deeper in the Design of the Stamp, the Book in the center could be an item selected for a Topic, or also a connection for a wider Education or Literature Topic. Then, a popular Topic that is Horse Topic, is represented also by this release, in the figure of the Chess Knight that is shown with another Chess Pieces in the Chess icon. Also, in the Centenary Logotype it is shown a Stylized figure of a Man in the act of Run, so, Running or Atletism, although not shown in the Icons as it was done with the other Sports, it is also represented in the Stamp design.

Even more deep, a Parasol Item is shown, and besides that Topic, Beach and Tourism could be infered too. Also, Tennis Racket, Hockey Stick, Basketball Hoop , and Also, all type of Balls are shown in the stamp design.  

Finally, in a more symbolic way: I think that the release put the Focus on the Exisence and Permanence of the combination of Physical and Intelectual Activities in order to make a Healthy Life, honouring the existence of this institution, the Sport University League, that althought not being in the Front view of what we know as the Academic Life, managed to Serve, through a whole Century, as a connection of lot of Students between themselves, and with many Sports, Intelectual, and Social Activities, that the University itself it is not able to provide.

Label:

The desing of the Label: Did not add any Topic, only it could reinforce the Ball one, as it includes the Logotype of the Sport University League that has a Ball in it.

Block:

The desing of the Block: Adding a the Centenary Logotype that shows a Stylized figure of a Man in the act of Run, as the icon selected to show the inks used in printing the Block, reinforces the Sports Topic, in particular Running or Atletism.

FDC:

The desing of the First Day Cancelation: Mades the same that the Block does, by including the Centenary Logotype that shows a Stylized figure of a Man in the act of Run, reinforcing the Sports Topic, in particular Running or Atletism, and as it add also the "100" number, also reinforces Centenary Topic.

If you consider that there are another topics in this stamp, that were not spot in this review, you are encouraged to telling me about them, so please do not hesitate to post a comment. I would appreciate your help very much.
