by the famous Russian-American Jewish artist Abraham Walkowitz.
by Isaac Lichtenstein

Original red cover with gold lettering. A collection of 39 charming charcoal and pen drawings depicting Jewish life in the early 20th century by the famous Russian-American Jewish artist Abraham Walkowitz. Includes an English pamphlet by Isaac Lichtenstein, which discusses Walkowitz\'s style and places him within the context of early modernist art. A powerful look into a now lost world that ranges from market place dealings to rabbis with Torah scrolls. This book was printed after the Holocaust and can thus be seen as part of the beginning of the process of memorializing European Jewry. Text in Yiddish. Inscribed by author. Some wear to spine and edges. Machmadim Art, New York, 1946. Hardcover. Signed.
