© Center for Jewish Art, Photographer: Khaimovich, Boris, 2012, Negative/Photo. No. A346420.

The composition of the three oval paintings adorns the central part of the western wall of the prayer hall.

The central painting depicts a future temple of Messianic time. The temple is a three-part structure. The central building with four columned portico crowned with a dome on a drum, the windows of which emanate rays. Two buildings on the sides are decorated with a classic four columned portico. Wide road and stairs lead to the entrance of the temple. All the doors to the temple are closed.

The picture on the left depicts a smooth surface of a forest lake with white water lilies. A white pot with fruits stands on the shore of the lake.

The picture on the right depicts colorful mountain peaks, aspiring to heaven.

The capitals of the painted pilasters include the landscapes: a rising sun above montains and a river in the center, and two landscapes with palms in the sides.

These images were painted during the renovation of the 1980s: the lake and mountains are completely new; the Temple replaces a similar picture and the same place. The landscapes were also repainted.
