© Center for Jewish Art, Photographer: Radovan, Zev, 02.1994
The picture represents a fantastic greenish-grey landscape with a bright-lilac vertical oval in the centre of the composition. Two light-yellow indefinite figures resembling menorah (one turned over) are depicted inside it. An interlacing of the figures forms the Magen David in the very center of the composition. The figures are surrounded by bird-heads and wings. The oval crosses a body of a big dragon painted in the green-grey colour. It has a big teeth-jow and a four-cogs crown on its head; we can see also its tail and forelegs. All the rest of the surface is occupied by imaginary plants and wings. The bright-yellow inscription "Le shana habaah be Yerushalaim" [Next year in Jerusalem] painted by the brush in square Hebrew letters is set above the oval.
