Fritz was commissioned to design a series of four stamps with panda motifs, which was not realized due to his early death. This depiction of a panda family in front of a dense bamboo forest, in a more allegorical than natural setting, was one of the designs. These gentle-looking animals, almost extinct in the 1960s and considered endangered even today, are still the symbol of species conservation.
