Description
This exquisite piece by renowned Judaica artist Shmuel Dan
is a mesmerizing fusion of vibrant colors, traditional symbolism,
and sacred Hebrew text. Handcrafted using colored ink on
parchment, the artwork depicts “Seven Open Gates of Jerusalem”,
drawn in intricate detail and imbued with deep spiritual significance.
The gates symbolize both the physical and metaphysical pathways
to Jerusalem, the heart of the Jewish faith and homeland.
At the core of the artwork is the Hebrew calligraphy of Psalm 137,
a powerful and emotional verse that reads,
“By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat and wept, as we remembered Zion.”
The psalm speaks to the Jewish people’s longing for Jerusalem during
the Babylonian exile, capturing the essence of hope, loss, and the
enduring connection to the Holy City.
Each gate is surrounded by an aura of vivid colors, reflecting the
diversity and vitality of Jerusalem. The eighth gate remains closed,
symbolizing the anticipation of future redemption. This unique
composition offers both a visual feast and a profound reflection on
Jewish heritage, faith, and resilience, making it a meaningful addition
to any collection.
