The stamp is based on a photograph captured by Philip Bermingham, a well-known photographer who was Ginsburg’s neighbor in the Watergate building.

The stamp will feature an oil painting of the photograph.
Ginsburg, who died in September 2020, is the first Supreme Court justice to get a solo U.S. stamp issue since 2003, when the late Justice Thurgood Marshall, the first African-American member of the Supreme Court, was honored. Ginsburg was 87 when she passed.
