EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a poignant piece of history, frozen in time. The image showcases a chandelier with nine arms, once belonging to a synagogue that tragically met its demise in 1925. Located in the city of Scharrachgergheim, this sacred place was once the heart of a thriving Jewish community. The chandelier stands as a symbol of resilience and faith amidst adversity. Its intricate design and delicate details are reminiscent of the rich traditions and cultural heritage it represented. Each arm holds significance within Judaism, representing unity and connection to God. However, behind this stunning craftsmanship lies a somber tale. The Jewish community began to fade away around 1920, leaving their beloved synagogue vulnerable to destruction just five years later. This photo serves as both an homage to the vibrant past that once thrived here and a reminder of the devastating loss suffered by those who called this place home. Photographer Leonard de Selva has expertly captured not only the physical beauty but also the emotional weight carried by this relic from another era. Through his lens, we are transported back in time, allowing us to reflect on history's impact on our present reality. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, may we remember those whose lives were forever altered by these events while cherishing their enduring legacy through art such as this photograph.
