EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Tobias Schwarz, a group of rabbis can be seen inspecting the setting-up of a large Menorah in front of the iconic Brandenburg Gate in Berlin. The image was taken on December 1,2010, just before a ceremony to mark the Jewish celebration of Hanukkah. The photograph beautifully captures the juxtaposition between tradition and modernity as the rabbis stand amidst the bustling cityscape. Dressed in traditional clothes and wearing hats, they exude an air of tranquility and faith while surrounded by towering buildings and a vibrant blue sky. The unrecognizable worshippers add to the atmosphere, their heads bowed low in prayer as they celebrate this important religious holiday. The Menorah itself stands tall and proud, its multiple branches serving as symbols of hope and unity for the Jewish community. This image showcases both beauty in nature with its picturesque backdrop and creative use of lighting that casts striking silhouettes against the sunlit sky. It serves as a powerful reminder that religion transcends boundaries – here we witness people from different backgrounds coming together to worship side by side. Overall, this photograph encapsulates not only a momentous occasion but also highlights how traditions can thrive even amidst urban landscapes.
