Bais Medrash Lomza
A modest room, a gathering of humble Jews, a powerful window to our exalted past. This starkly beautiful drawing depicts a Bais Medrash in Poland, “House of Torah Learning” filled to the brim with townspeople, immersed in the lifeblood of the Jewish People. The artist displays the impenetrable dignity and spiritual majesty of the ordinary Jew of generations past. Beneath worn clothes shine pious souls, replete with Torah, mitzvos, and impeccable moral character.
