Jerusalem-The Wall

In this limited edition serigraph Shemuel Katz depicts a landscape of Jerusalem. The vibrant hues are used to depict springtime. The widespread greenery and vivid blue sky are used to fill the image with optimism. Spring is a season of rebirth, and this idea is furthered by the clarity of colour, pointing to a cultural rebirth in Jerusalem.The dissonance between the contemporary style and traditional theme illustrates the interplay between secular societal trends and the upkeep of traditional Judaic culture. The whimsical tones help usher in the idea of cultural unity. The serigraph is printed on paper and signed by the artist in the bottom right corner.
