About the Item
This is printed on heavy art paper. it is a lithograph or silkscreen print done after a drawing by Ephraim Moshe Lilien. Great vintage judaic art from Berkeley California in the 1970's.
Ephraim Moses Lilien (Hebrew: אפרים משה ליליין; 23 May 1874 – 18 July 1925) was an art nouveau illustrator and printmaker particularly noted for his art on Jewish themes. He is sometimes called the "first Zionist artist."
Ephraim Moses Lilien (Maurycy Lilien) was born in 1874, in Drohobycz, Galicia, then in the Austro-Hungarian Empire. In 1889-1893 Lilien learned painting and graphic techniques at the Academy of Arts in Kraków. He studied under Polish painter Jan Matejko from 1890 to 1892.
As a member of the Zionist Movement, Lilien traveled to Ottoman Palestine several times between 1906 and 1918.
Lilien attended the Fifth Zionist Congress, held in Basel, as a member of the Democratic Fraction, an opposition group that supported the development of secular national culture. In 1905, at the Seventh Zionist Congress, in Basel, he, along with Boris Schatz, became a member of a committee formed to help establish the Bezalel Art School. As part of that work he accompanied Schatz to Jerusalem. Lilien was one of the two artists to accompany Boris Schatz to what is now Israel in 1906 for the purpose of establishing Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design, and taught the school's first class in 1906. Although his stay in the country was short-lived, he left his indelible stamp on the creation of an Eretz Israel style, placing biblical subjects in the Zionist context and oriental settings, conceived in an idealized Western design. In the first two decades of the century, Lilien's work served as a model for the Bezalel group. Lilien is known for his famous photographic portrait of Theodor Herzl. He often used Herzl as a model, considering his features a perfect representation of the "New Jew." In 1896, he received an award for photography from the avant garde magazine Jugend. Lilien illustrated several books. In 1923, an exhibition of his work opened in New York.
Lilien's illustrated books include Juda (1900), Biblically-themes poetry by Lilien's Christian friend, Börries Freiherr von Münchhausen, and Lieder des Ghetto (Songs of the Ghetto) (1903), Yiddish poems by Morris Rosenfeld translated into German. Present in the works of art: tradition, religion, family and community, are recurring motifs in the works of selected 37 painters and graphic artists from around the world. These works describe everyday and festive rituals, professions, religious and social life, but also studies of the figures of rabbis, scholars, craftsmen and ordinary inhabitants of small towns. They allow with a great deal of diversity to look into the depths of the world that existed for centuries and was destroyed during the World War.
The exhibition, apart from independent painting works, graphics and drawings, also shows prints. One of the most original forms of expression of Jewish painters and graphic artists in the early twentieth century was a book and press illustration in Yiddish and Hebrew publishing houses (and their translations into German and French). Especially noteworthy are the achievements of Lilien in Vienna, Józef Budka, Herman Struck and Jakob Steinhardt in Berlin and Marc Chagall in Paris.

Anatoli Lwowitch Kaplan was a Russian painter, sculptor and printmaker, whose works often reflect his Jewish origins. His father was a butcher in Rahachow which was at that time within the Jewish Pale of Settlement in Russia.
