Signed and Numbered Serigraph by Shraga Weil
Shraga Weil uses the legend of the Phoenix as a metaphor for the rebirth of the nation of Israel after 2,000 years of diaspora.
A white phoenix rises from the ashes, bearing the breastplate of the High Priest, symbolizing the return of the 12 tribes. A cut-down tree sprouting new leaves represents renewal, while Joseph’s multi-colored coat reflects Israel’s unique place among the nations.
In rich, dramatic colors, Weil tells the story of a people rising from darkness to light, fulfilling the promise made to Abraham:
"To your seed I will give this land." — Genesis 12
