Memories of Morocco
Artist
Esther Newman-Cohen
Medium
Painting - Acrylic On Canvas
Description
This painting shows an old Sephardic Jewish woman who came to Israel from Morocco. Once flourishing communities in cities such as Casablanca, Marrakesh, Rabat, Fez and Meknes, there are very few Jews left. After the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948 families were dispersed between Israel, France, Canada, the United States, Brazil and elsewhere. What remains are the memories. To the right of the image are symbols appearing in traditional Moroccan Jewish artwork. This is a signed original work painted in acrylic on canvas.
