Signed Photograph of Albert Einstein in Jerusalem; The Only One Known to Exist
EINSTEIN, ALBERT.
Albert Einstein Signed Photograph.
: 1923.
Extremely rare original photograph boldly signed “Albert Einstein Jersusalem 1923” during his only trip to Palestine in 1923. Einstein’s return voyage from his tour of Japan and China took him via the Red Sea and Suez Canal which allowed him to accept the invitation of Arthur Ruppin, the director of the Palestine office of the Zionist Organization in Jaffa to visit the region for twelve days. Einstein arrived in Port Said on February 1, 1923, and from there he traveled to Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, Jaffa and Haifa. The photographer, Zvi Oron, began his career in Warsaw and the United States before opening a studio in Tel Aviv in 1919. In 1930 he moved to Jerusalem and opened a studio of Jaffa Street working in the service of press clients and the British Government. He was well regarded for his candid images that captured daily life in the British Mandate. The Zionist archive holds over 1,300 of his negatives. Double matted and framed, the entire piece measures 19.75 inches by 15.5 inches. An exceptional piece. This is the only signed photograph known from his time in Palestine.
