Janos or Giovanni Hajnal was a visual artist who made very recognizable art, especially stained glass and mosaics. See for example #267365 . His name has been entered under the person themes. But is he also the designer of those stamps? I am not sure. Who knows more about it?

Sometimes the designer of a stamp is mentioned at the bottom of the image. This is also the case here. Coincidentally also the artist of what is depicted, or not?
I see that there is a Y in the name, and not a J. Is the personal name on LD a translation, an error on the stamp, or is it another person with a similar name?

[edit]
Must be the same:
Hajnal illustrated a number of stamp series for the Vatican. Notable works include: 4 stamps in 1983 for the Holy Year ; in 1985 the commemorative series for Saint Cyril and Metodio ; in 1993 4 stamps for the International Eucharistic Congress of Seville ; in 1994 for the International Year of the Family; and in 1998, 5 stamps dedicated to the Pope's travels. In 2006, the magazine Cronaca Filatelica dedicated its front page to Hajnal's stamp creations."

G. Hajnal, G. Haynal, Giovanni Hajnal, Giovanni Haynal, Janos Hajnal, I think it's all about one and the same person.
