EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, an elderly Jewish man sits with a solemn expression inside the El Ghriba Synagogue, located in the Jewish village of Hara Seghira on the Tunisian island of Djerba. The synagogue, also known as the El Ghriba Synagogue or the Djerba Synagogue, is a significant religious site for the Jewish community in Tunisia and is believed to date back over a thousand years. The man, with deeply lined features and a wizened appearance, dons a traditional Chechia hat and holds a Zion prayer book in his hands. His unblinking, steady gaze directly engages the viewer, conveying a sense of wisdom and resilience. The synagogue's intricate details, including the Hebrew inscriptions and ornate decorations, are visible in the background, adding to the sense of history and tradition. The landscape format of the photograph captures the man in his environment, highlighting the connection between the individual and the community and the enduring presence of Jewish culture in Tunisia. This photograph, taken circa 1987, offers a poignant glimpse into the past and the rich heritage of the Jewish community in Tunisia.
