EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back to a significant chapter in history - the Palestine events of 1929. The image captures a poignant scene during the August riots that engulfed Jerusalem and its surroundings for eight tumultuous days, from August 23 to 31. In this particular frame, we see crosses prominently displayed on Christian homes, carefully marked so as not to be mistaken for Jewish residences. These crosses serve as symbols of faith and identity amidst the chaos and violence that plagued the region at that time. The photograph offers a glimpse into the complex dynamics of religious tensions during this period. It reminds us of how communities sought ways to protect themselves while navigating through an atmosphere filled with fear and uncertainty. Through this lens, we gain insight into both the resilience of individuals who proudly showcased their religious affiliation despite potential risks, as well as the unfortunate reality where such markings were necessary to avoid persecution or misidentification. As we reflect upon this historical moment captured by Liszt Collection's remarkable archive, it serves as a reminder of our shared humanity and highlights how even in times of turmoil, people find strength in their beliefs while striving for peace and understanding amidst adversity.
