Uriel Axta.

View through Europeana Collections
A pair of identical copies from the same postcard, featuring a mesh print from a painting showing Uriel Acosta (D'Acosta) in the synagogue. This painting is a variation on the scene written by Karl Gutzkow in his play Uriel D'Acosta. The postcards did not name the artist. In one of the postcards, the title was printed under the painting in Hebrew only, in red, while in the other postcard, the title was also printed in Latin letters, along with the Hebrew greeting: "For a good year". The two postcards are divided, and they were produced in Poland or Russia in the early 20th century. These postcards were not used and have no details as to where or when they were produced.
