EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back in time to a significant moment in history - Lord Balfour's visit to Hebrew University in Jerusalem, Israel. The year is 1918, and amidst the backdrop of a rapidly changing world, this image captures an event that would shape the future of education and diplomacy. In this historic snapshot, we witness Lord Balfour himself laying the foundation stone of Hebrew University. His presence symbolizes not only his support for Jewish education but also his commitment to fostering cultural understanding and cooperation between nations. Standing tall with determination, he embodies hope for a brighter future built on knowledge and mutual respect. The scene itself is awe-inspiring; Jerusalem's ancient architecture serves as a poignant reminder of the rich heritage upon which this new institution will be established. As construction workers diligently work around him, their dedication mirrors the collective effort required to build bridges between different cultures and forge lasting connections. This photograph encapsulates both historical significance and timeless values: progress, unity, and intellectual pursuit. It reminds us that education has always been at the forefront of societal advancement. Moreover, it prompts reflection on how far we have come since then while urging us to continue striving for greater inclusivity and understanding within our global community. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Liszt Collection, let it serve as a reminder that even small acts can lay foundations for monumental change - just like Lord Balfour did over a century ago at Hebrew University in Jerusalem.
