The B'nai B'rith Monument - A Symbol of Religious Liberty in 19th Century America
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This albumen print, captured by the Centennial Photographic Co. in the late 19th century, showcases "The B'nai B'rith Monument" at its most majestic. Standing tall at 21x26 cm, this silver albumen print is a testament to the enduring power of art and its ability to convey profound messages. The sculpture itself, created by renowned sculptor Moses Jacob Ezekiel, depicts a robed and armored figure representing Liberty. With her arm outstretched in warning and an eagle by her side, she stands as a symbol of freedom and protection. At her feet is a semi-nude boy holding a bowl while looking up towards Heaven with his other hand raised. This magnificent monument was erected by the Israelites as an homage to Religious Liberty - an essential value cherished by Americans during that era. The exhibit title for this masterpiece was "The B'nai B'rith Monument" which held the prestigious spot of Exhibit #103. Mounted on a sturdy backing board, this photograph captures every intricate detail of Ezekiel's creation. It serves as both a historical artifact and an artistic marvel that continues to inspire viewers today. As we gaze upon this image from Fine Art Finder's collection at the Free Library of Philadelphia, we are reminded of America's commitment to religious freedom and how it has shaped our nation throughout history. This photograph invites us into the world where art meets ideology - where sculptures become symbols that transcend time and speak volumes about our shared values as human beings.
