Ze'ev Raban - Jericho - lithograph
This framed chromolithograph is one of four scenes by Ze'ev Raban of the Holy Land.
Famous as the oldest continually inhabited city on earth, Jericho's past is referenced via an archeological dig. Insets portray the Ark of the Covenant and two spies returning with a huge cluster of grapes.
About the artist: Wolf Rawicki was born in Łódź, Poland in 1890 and moved to Ottoman Palestine in 1912 where he adopted the name of Ze'ev Raban. He studied at the Bezalel school and later joined the faculty. Raban taught anatomy and composition, as well as painting and sculpture. Bezalel subjects were a combination of traditional Jewish religious images, Zionist symbols, Biblical themes, views of the Holy Land and depictions of the flora and fauna of Palestine.
Printed circa 1950 in Israel, it measures 9x5.5 inches. The black lacquer frame with beautiful fabric border was done at Hudson's Department Store in Detroit on November 27, 1956.
Each print is $95 or $350 for the four.
