EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the historical moment in Wissembourg, Alsace, France in 1869. The image captures the significant event of laying the first stone of the Israeli temple, a remarkable milestone for both Jewish religion and architecture. Although created by an unknown artist from the 19th century, this photograph holds immense value as it showcases a pivotal moment in history. The scene depicts a construction site bustling with activity as workers diligently lay down the foundation stone of this magnificent temple. The engraving beautifully captures their dedication and determination to create a sacred space for worship. The composition highlights intricate details such as architectural elements that blend French aesthetics with Jewish symbolism. Wissembourg's rich cultural heritage is evident through its connection to Judaism and its location in Alsace-Lorraine region. This photograph serves as a testament to the harmonious coexistence between different religious communities during that era. Preserved within a private collection, this artwork by Stefano Bianchetti offers viewers an intimate glimpse into an important chapter of religious history. As we admire this piece today, we are reminded of the enduring legacy left behind by those who laid these foundational stones over a century ago.
