Stamp series featuring the travels of Count Maurice Benyovszky

As the closing project of my graphic designer studies, I have decided to make a stamp series featuring Count Maurice Benyovszky (Benyovszky Móric), a notable adventurer, sailor and explorer, who was born 280 years ago last year. The Hungarian Postal Service made 2021 an official Memorial Year in the honor of the Count, and as I am an amateur stamp collector myself, I thought that it would be a good challenge for me to make my own stamp version of his journeys. The story about this set was focusing on the islands which Benyovszky visited during his adventures, also featuring the local wildlife he and his crew encountered in each location.
