EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back to a significant moment in history - the eve of Shlomo Ben-Yosef's hanging on June 28,1938. The image captures the intense atmosphere of disturbance and police activities on Jaffa Road, one of Jerusalem's most iconic streets. In this snapshot frozen in time, soldiers and civilians gather in front of the Zion Cinema at Zion Circle. Their faces reveal a mix of emotions - anxiety, curiosity, and perhaps even defiance. It is clear that something monumental is about to take place. The composition highlights the contrast between the imposing presence of law enforcement officers and ordinary citizens going about their daily lives. The tension is palpable as people navigate through this charged environment. Beyond its historical significance, this photograph also offers a glimpse into life during that era in Palestine or Israel (as it was known then). It serves as a reminder that even amidst political turmoil and unrest, everyday routines persist. As we examine this powerful image captured by an unknown photographer, we are reminded once again how photography has the ability to transport us back in time and evoke strong emotions tied to our shared human experience.
