EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Relic of War and Artistry: An Engraved 77 mm German Artillery Shell Case from the Bezalel School in Jerusalem, WWI" 2. Description: This photograph showcases an extraordinary piece of World War I trench art - a 77 mm German artillery shell case, meticulously engraved at the renowned Bezalel School in Jerusalem. The brass casing, adorned with three panels of silver and copper damascene work, is a testament to the creativity and craftsmanship that emerged from the crucible of war. Each panel is intricately decorated with geometric patterns and features a silver Star of David at its center, symbolizing the Jewish identity and connection to the Holy Land. The base of the casing bears the inscription "Bezalel/Jerusalem" in Hebrew, proudly identifying its origin. The Bezalel School, founded in 1906 by Boris Schatz, was a pioneering institution dedicated to promoting Jewish art and craftsmanship. During World War I, the school provided a sanctuary for artists and craftsmen, who, amidst the chaos of war, transformed discarded military objects into works of art. This engraved artillery shell case is a prime example of their ingenuity and artistic prowess. The fusion of brass, silver, copper, and damascene work creates a visually stunning piece, which not only serves as a historical artifact but also as a reminder of the resilience and creativity that emerged during one of the darkest periods in human history. 3.
