View through Europeana Collections
A pair of identical copies from the same postcard, with a reproduction from an illustration by the German-Jewish artist Ephraim Moshe Leilian showing two Jews sitting aboard a liner and around them a storm. In front of the two, the image of the Grim Reaper is seen emerging at them. This illustration was taken from Maurice Rosenfeld's book of poems, translated into German by Berghold Fable: Lieder des Ghetto /von Morris Rosenfeld; Autor. Uebertragung aus dem Juedischen von Berthold Feiwel ; mit Zeichnungen von E.M.Lilien. One of the undiscovered and unconscioned veils had the name of Hatman and the name of the painting printed in French. On the back of this postcard was the stamp "Ganzi Yosef Birshelm": a donation by Dr. Yosef Hazanovich, Ialystok, to the National Book. Apparently, this copy was printed in Warsaw in 1903. The second copy of this postcard, in which the title was printed in German, was produced a few years later. The same illustration appeared, under a different title, in a postcard published in Berlin by The Phoenix Press - Kunstverlag Phönix. See: TM8* 454
