Engraved stamps are a dying art practiced in only three countries worldwide. Photographer Sophie Brändström spent months shadowing the French artisans who keep this heritage alive, capturing their meticulous craft in intimate portraits. Her personal connection runs deep: her great-aunt, a WWI humanitarian, once appeared on a German stamp herself.
