© Center for Jewish Art, Photographer: Radovan, Zev, 11.2.1992

The picture illustrates Song of Solomon 5:7. The scene takes place at a street, during the night. Two guards are seen on the left with a young woman between them. The robed guard on her right is carrying a long torch. The woman is closer to him, trying to defend herself: her right hand is protecting her chest while the other one is around her head. The guard on her left, seen from the back, wearing a similar robe is holding a whip behind his back. He is about to whip her. On the background there is a stone paved street. The picture frame is painted as a gray stone wall with lion reliefs at the upper corners. At each side of the gate stands a column. The text is written in gray, block and big Hebrew letters, below the picture.
