Mid-20th Century Enamel and Iron Israeli 'Rah'el' Street Name Sign
Located in New York, NY
Mid-20th century handmade Israeli street name sign. Made of enamel and iron, this street sign was created shortly after the establishment of the state of Israel in 1948. The sign is written in bolt white letters over a dark blue background, alluding to the colors of the national flag of the newly established state. The sign names the street 'Ra'hel' (Rachel) in Jerusalem in both Hebrew and English letters (in transliteration). The origin of the name Rachel comes from the book of Genesis in the Bible, where it appears as the name of a biblical figure - a shepherdess, the wife of Jacob our father, the daughter of Laban the Armenian, the sister of Leah his mother and one of the four mothers of the people of Israel. Rachel was also the mother of Joseph the righteous and Benjamin. However, this sign refers to the poet Rahel Bluwstein, more famously known as Rachel the Poetess, who is considered the “founding mother...
