EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful and thought-provoking photograph captured by Philippe Lissac from Universal Images Group (UIG), we witness a deeply spiritual moment in the life of an Orthodox Jew. The image portrays an adult Jewish man engaged in the ancient ritual of putting on his phylactery, also known as tefillin. The scene exudes a sense of devotion and faith, as the man carefully wraps leather straps around his arm and forehead while reciting prayers. His eyes closed in concentration, he connects with a higher power through this sacred act that symbolizes his commitment to Judaism. Lissac's composition beautifully captures the essence of religious practice within Europe's Orthodox Jewish community. The warm indoor lighting adds depth to the image, emphasizing both the physicality of the ritual objects and their spiritual significance. This print serves as a reminder of how religion can shape our lives and provide solace during challenging times. It invites us to reflect on our own beliefs and practices while fostering respect for diverse faiths worldwide. As we gaze upon this image, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic appeal but also its ability to evoke contemplation about spirituality, tradition, and cultural heritage – universal themes that transcend geographical boundaries.
