EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Tabernacle and its priests" a remarkable piece of art created by the Jewish School in the 2nd century. The artwork, painted with tempera on plaster, can be found at the Dura-Europos Synagogue in the National Museum of Damascus, Syria. The image depicts a scene from biblical times, illustrating the sacred house of God known as the Tabernacle. The mural beautifully captures intricate details of this portable structure, showcasing its classical architecture with Corinthian columns and symbolic elements such as the menorah. In this narrative fresco secco painting, we see priests adorned in traditional Hebrew garments conducting religious rituals within the Tabernacle's walls. Their presence evokes a sense of reverence and devotion to their faith. The artwork holds historical significance as it represents an era when Jews were exiled in foreign lands like Syria. It serves as a reminder of their resilience and commitment to preserving their religious practices even during challenging times. "The Tabernacle and its priests" is not only an artistic masterpiece but also an important cultural artifact that sheds light on ancient Jewish traditions. This print allows us to appreciate both its aesthetic beauty and spiritual symbolism captured by Bridgeman Images' talented photographer eZev Radovan.
