EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back to a significant moment in history - the Palestine disturbances of 1936. The image captures a scene filled with both tension and hope as orange lighters are being tugged out to a ship, their holds brimming with crates of oranges. The composition is striking, showcasing the bustling port of Jaffa against the backdrop of an orange-hued sky. As these sturdy vessels round the farther end of the break-water, one can almost feel the anticipation in the air. Each lighter represents not only a shipment of delicious citrus fruits but also symbolizes resilience and determination amidst challenging times. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness an essential part of Israel's agricultural heritage coming to life. The oranges harvested from fertile Palestinian lands were not just commodities; they carried within them stories of hard work and perseverance. While this photograph does not delve into commercial aspects or mention any specific company, it invites us to reflect on how trade and agriculture have played crucial roles in shaping nations' histories. It serves as a reminder that even during periods marked by unrest and turmoil, human ingenuity finds ways to thrive. Through this lens captured by Liszt Collection, we are transported back to Tel Aviv in 1936 - witnessing firsthand how something as simple as orange lighters being loaded onto ships could hold so much significance for an entire region's economy and identity.
