EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the grandeur of the Hekhal in the old synagogue of Livorno. The Hekhal, or ark, is beautifully ornate and serves as a sacred space for housing Torah scrolls in Judaism. Luigi Betti's skilled photography showcases the intricate details and craftsmanship of this religious artifact. The Livorno synagogue depicted in this print was tragically destroyed during World War II. However, a modern building was erected in its place between 1958 and 1962. This image thus serves as a poignant reminder of both loss and resilience within the Jewish community. The composition highlights not only the elaborate design of the Hekhal but also includes other significant elements such as a candelabrum (menorah) and bimah (raised platform). These objects symbolize important aspects of Jewish religious practice. Betti's photograph expertly captures the play of light on candles, creating an ethereal ambiance within the frame. The candlelight adds to the sense of reverence that permeates this sacred space. Overall, this photograph offers viewers a glimpse into an ancient tradition while also serving as a testament to faith enduring through adversity. It stands as both artistry captured by Betti's lens and historical documentation preserved by Museo di Storia della Fotografia Fratelli Alinari in Florence.
