Postcards: the Palace of Art series
Together with Irad Pochtasy, the state post, we have issued a series of 45 picture postcards of works from our collection: the Sogdian rooms, the icons and church silver that families hid for us, the Yusup Ayyubov Hall, Saparbekov's horses, the Soviet-era painters and this season's exhibitions.
Send one free. Every card can be written and sent as a link from the post's postcard page, with a stamp of Irad and the postmark of your post office, or saved as a picture to print. Click a picture below, or the "Send as a postcard" link under any work in our galleries.
Buy them printed in the Palace shop (ground floor), at the Philatelic Bureau of the Talas Central Post Office and at Post Office No. 3 by the pilgrims' square in Iyık Janyl.
