Human Rights: Art. 29 & 30
The Universal Declaration of Human Rights is a core resolution of the U.N. These stamps contain excerpts from Articles 29 and 30 – in English, French, and German. Below is the complete text from those two articles:
Article 29
Everyone has duties to the community in which alone the free and full development of his personality is possible.
In the exercise of his rights and freedoms, everyone shall be subject only to such limitations as are determined by law solely for the purpose of securing due recognition and respect for the rights and freedoms of others and of meeting the just requirements of morality, public order and the general welfare in a democratic society.
These rights and freedoms may in no case be exercised contrary to the purposes and principles of the United Nations.
Article 30
Nothing in this Declaration may be interpreted as implying for any State, group or person any right to engage in any activity or to perform any act aimed at the destruction of any of the rights and freedoms set forth herein.
Note
The painting shown on the top set of stamps is called, Lower Austrian Peasants’ Wedding. It’s by the Austrian painter, Ferdinand G. Waldmuller from Vienna. The other, modern picture is called, Outback. It was done by Sally Morgan from Australia.
