EDITORS COMMENTS
This thought-provoking print titled "Lviv - Vienna. Anti-Semitic postcard, 1905" captures a dark chapter in history that should never be forgotten. The image, part of a private collection, serves as a stark reminder of the deep-rooted prejudice and persecution faced by Jewish communities during this time. The colour lithography technique employed in this artwork enhances the vividness of its message. It depicts an anonymous scene filled with besetment and hostility towards Jews. This genre piece reflects the disturbing reality experienced by many individuals who were targeted solely based on their religious beliefs. The year 1905 marked a period when anti-Semitism was rampant across Europe, particularly in Galicia and Austria. Pogroms and acts of violence against Jews were unfortunately prevalent during this era, leaving lasting scars on Jewish history. While it is disheartening to witness such hatred captured within this portrait, it is crucial to remember these events as they serve as reminders of humanity's capacity for discrimination and persecution. By acknowledging our past mistakes, we can strive for a more inclusive future where all individuals are treated with dignity and respect. It is important to note that this caption does not endorse or support any form of anti-Semitism or discrimination; rather, it seeks to shed light on historical realities through art appreciation and education.
