Subject: [ha-Safran]: REPOSTING WOOD BLOCK CARVING OF WESTERN WALL -- FREE to a Jewish Institution (Temple, Synagogue or School)
Safranim:
This is a reposting from May 7 of this year. If this wood block carving is of interest, please tell me where I should ship it.
I inherited a particularly fine example of a classic motif of davening at the Western Wall. I will describe it and then attempt to embed the image in an HTML message. If the HaSafran server will relay it -- and if you are interested -- write off-line to me for the full-image for evaluation. NOTE: As a retired computer scientist, I use a wide range of tools to prevent intrusion (router), attack and viruses/worms. You may safely open the image.
I will even pay the shipping.
The polished wood block carving depicts a bearded man in the foreground of the Wall. In the background, there are smaller images of other daveners. The left hand side shows the orthogonal wall. The entire perspective is like the DaVinci "vanishing point" perspective to the left.
I have seen many such carvings and many posters on this theme. I would like to find a good home for this Jewish art object.
