Souvenir Poster – Inauguration of the Hebrew University, 1925
Souvenir poster in honor of the opening of the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, [central Europe (Vienna?), 1925]. No mention of printer's name.
In the center appears the Hebrew University on Mount Scopus (viewed from the west), according to plans drawn by Patrick Geddes and his son in law Frank Mears, which, eventually, were not followed. The illustration is surrounded by medallions with portraits of prominent persons in Jewish history: Herzl, Baron Rothschild, Nordau, Weizmann, Wolfson, Bialik, Ahad HaAm, Trumpeldor, Ben-Yehudah, Shapira, Ussishkin, Sokolov and Herbert Samuel. The portraits are encircled by decorations of leaves and acorns. On the reverse appear two ink-stamps: 14th Zionist Congress in Vienna (1925) and an ink-stamp indicating price.
54X47.5 cm. Good condition. Stains. Frame: 58X56 cm.
