She has produced numerous decorative compositions in a philatelic format, including this work, entitled, 'Passport'. Superficially, the print follows traditional stamp design: it comprises a small sheet of stamps, and includes the perforations that are required to separate the stamps from each other and the selvedge that marks the edge of the sheet. However, the image is a repeated passport-style photograph of the artist herself. Issues of national identity and state control were widespread in Russia following the Soviet Union's collapse in 1991.","physicalDescription":"The sheet comprises four stamps and residual selvedge which is partially printed.  The stamps each bear slightly variant images of the same symbols for 'This way up' (an open umbrella) and 'fragile'  a wine glass, plus variant lettering in Russian and English including the words 'LAMANOVA' and 'This passport'; the artist's date of birth and a date-stamp of 1999. The central image of each stamp is a passport photograph of the artist. Each is a different colour:  red, pink, blue and green. The predominant  colour of the sheet is greyish pink.","artistMakerPerson":[{"name":{"text":"Lamanova, Natalia","id":"N10161"},"association":{"text":"designer","id":"x36960"},"note":""}],"artistMakerOrganisations":[],"artistMakerPeople":[],"materials":[],"techniques":[],"materialsAndTechniques":"colour digital print on paper","categories":[{"text":"Prints","id":"THES48903"},{"text":"Portraits","id":"THES48906"}],"styles":[],"collectionCode":{"text":"PDP","id":"THES48595"},"images":["2009CT2235"],"imageResolution":"high","galleryLocations":[{"current":{"text":"LVLE","id":"THES49657"},"free":"","case":"MP","shelf":"227","box":""}],"partTypes":[[{"text":"print","id":""}]],"contentWarnings":[{"apprise":"","note":""}],"placesOfOrigin":[{"place":{"text":"Russia","id":"x29110"},"association":{"text":"printed","id":"AAT53319"},"note":""}],"productionDates":[{"date":{"text":"2002","earliest":"2002-01-01","latest":"2002-12-31"},"association":{"text":"printed","id":"AAT53319"},"note":""}],"associatedObjects":[],"creditLine":"Purchased through the Julie and Robert Breckman Print Fund","dimensions":[{"dimension":"Height","value":"12.6","unit":"cm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"sheet","note":""},{"dimension":"Width","value":"21","unit":"cm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"sheet","note":""},{"dimension":"Height","value":"9.5","unit":"cm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"printed surface","note":""},{"dimension":"Width","value":"17","unit":"cm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"printed surface","note":""}],"dimensionsNote":"","marksAndInscriptions":[{"content":"2002 \"Passport\" 13/30  Lamanova\r\nNatalia Lamanove \"Passport\" 2002","inscriber":{"name":{"text":"","id":""},"association":{"text":"","id":""}},"date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"description":"","interpretation":"","language":"","medium":"","method":"","position":"","script":"","translation":"","transliteration":"","type":"","note":"Lettered within the design with the date.
