Michele will give an illustrated talk about the portrait collections of 19th century Jews – the social media of the day.

Paybox app or using bit to +972-54-7228879.

Photographs printed on small cards were arranged in beautifully bound albums, showcasing the owners’ identity and social world, of women and of men.

These portraits, gifted and exchanged, functioned as social media, and the many narratives in these conversation pieces reveal little-known information about Jewish life and culture.

If you would like to bring your own 19th century photographs, Michele will be happy to discuss them after her talk.
