View through Europeana Collections
A pair of non-identical copies of the same postcard containing a black-and-white reproduction of the painting of the Russian-Jewish artist Isaac - Isaac Ashkenazi (Исаак Лввовир Аскнаид, 1856-1902). The painting shows Moshe Rabbanu while he was a shepherd, holding a stick and at his feet, a dog. Each of the two copies of the postcard was produced at a different time. On the earlier copy, from the middle of the first decade of the twentieth century, the artist's name and title were printed in French and Hebrew, while on the later copy, from the middle of the second decade of the twentieth century, they were printed in German and Hebrew. Both postcards are divided, and on the backs of both were printed the trademark of the Lebanon Press, which produced them. These postcards were not used and were removed from the collection of "Lebanon" postcards donated to the National Library in 1939 by the publisher's editor-in-chief, Mr. Benjamin Mintz, Warsaw.
