This Dynamic and Highly Individualistic Work offers a splendid view of a Majestic Synagogue building set within an Unbelievably Breathtaking City Panorama! ”THE GREAT SYNAGOGUE” is a Genuine Signed & Dated Ari Roussimoff Oil on Canvas Painting, measuring a large-sized 24 x 30 inches, and hails from the year 1985. It is an outstanding artistic statement on the once thriving Jewish communities of Eastern Europe. Groups of Chassidic Jews affectionately gather around their much revered Rabbi (Rebbe) before the centuries old brick Synagogue building. One is transported back in time, and can practically hear the Yiddish language conversations. Surrounding the Synagogue is a panoramic view of the Russian city, where one already notices the changes of the times, as modern urban edifices battle for space against numerous little ramshackle wooden homes that have miraculously stood their ground for centuries. The Synagogue represents the eternal voice of spirituality which exists and even flourishes within each and every environment. It should also be noted that one of this picture's unique elements is that it is set in a large sprawling Russian metropolis, rather then in a quaint "Shtetl", a small Jewish town. This most Poignant and Highly Detailed Artistic Portrayal of Jewish Religious Life before the war in Europe Springs to Life Before One’s Very Own Eyes. A Wonderous Artwork!!!
