EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant print captures a moment in time at the Odessa Jewish orphanage in the 1920s. The faces of the children and staff tell a story of resilience and hope amidst difficult circumstances. In the background, you can see a group of boys playing with a dog, while girls stand together holding hands. These children were part of a community that faced challenges but also found moments of joy and connection.
The establishment of the Jewish Autonomous Region in Birobidzhan during this era was an attempt to create a homeland for Jewish people within the Soviet Union. This album from the National Library of Russia provides a glimpse into the early years of this region, offering insight into daily life and cultural practices.
As we look at this image, we are reminded of the importance of preserving history and honoring those who came before us. The unknown creator has captured not just faces, but stories and emotions that transcend time. This photograph serves as a reminder of both hardship and strength, highlighting the resilience of these young individuals in uncertain times.
Through black-and-white imagery, we are transported back to Odessa in the 1920s, where these children found solace in each other's company despite their circumstances. It is through images like these that we can learn about our shared past and strive towards creating a more inclusive future for all communities.
