EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a poignant moment in history at the Wailing Place of the Jews in Jerusalem. Taken by Karl Grober, a renowned photographer from 1885 to 1945, this image showcases the deep connection between the Jewish people and their sacred site. The Wailing Place, also known as the Western Wall or Kotel, holds immense religious significance for Jews around the world. It is believed to be part of the retaining wall that once surrounded the Second Temple, which was destroyed in 70 CE. Today, it serves as a place of prayer and reflection for both locals and visitors alike. In this photograph taken in the 1920s, we see a group of devout Jews gathered at this holy site. Their expressions are filled with reverence and devotion as they touch or lean against the ancient stones. The atmosphere is solemn yet hopeful, reflecting their deep spiritual connection to Jerusalem. This image was originally featured in "Palestine and Syria: The Country, The People, and The Landscape" published by Via-Lens in 1926. Its inclusion in this publication highlights its historical importance as an illustration of life during that time period. As we gaze upon this powerful photograph today, it serves as a reminder of both our shared human history and our individual faiths. It allows us to witness a moment frozen in time - one that continues to resonate with millions who hold Jerusalem close to their hearts.
