EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures Dr. Chaim Weizmann, a pivotal figure in the Zionist movement, delivering a speech at an outdoor banquet in Rishon LeZion, Palestine, towards the close of the First World War in April 1918. Dr. Weizmann, dressed in formal attire, addresses an attentive audience under the open sky, with the backdrop of a barren yet hopeful landscape. As a member of the Zionist Commission in Palestine, Weizmann played a significant role in the political and practical aspects of the Jewish return to their ancestral homeland. His vision of a Jewish state in Palestine gained momentum during the war, and his efforts bore fruit when he became the first President of the State of Israel in 1948. This powerful image encapsulates the spirit of determination, resilience, and hope that defined the Zionist movement during this transformative period in Jewish history.
