1. Title: "A Work of Art from the Battlefield: A 77 mm German Artillery Shell Case Engraved at the Bezalel School in Jerusalem" This photograph showcases a unique and intricately engraved 77 mm German artillery shell case, a testament to the artistic creativity that emerged from the tumultuous landscape of the First World War. The shell case, now a relic of history, was engraved at the renowned Bezalel School in Jerusalem. The Bezalel School, founded in 1906 by Boris Schatz, was a pioneering institution dedicated to the revival and promotion of Jewish arts and crafts. During the First World War, the school transformed into a center for creating trench art, as students and faculty sought solace and expression amidst the chaos of war. The shell case in this photograph is adorned with exquisite damascene work, a technique that involves inlaying patterns on a base metal, such as brass, using silver and copper. The engravings on this piece are a stunning display of various patterns, including branched lamps and intricate floral decorations. The artistic value of this piece transcends its military origins, offering a glimpse into the human spirit's resilience and ability to find beauty even in the midst of conflict. The 77 mm German artillery shell case is a poignant reminder of the historical significance of the Bezalel School and the role it played in preserving the artistic heritage of the time. This photograph, with its rich history and intricate details, is an essential addition to any collection focusing on military history, topographical studies, or the history of art and craftsmanship during the First World War.
