Poster depicts Moshe Dayan, Yitzhak Rabin, and Uzi
Narkiss in the Old City of Jerusalem, with the Lion's Gate (
Sha'ar
Ha'arayot) behind them. In 1967, the Old City of Jerusalem was
recaptured from the Jordanian Legion during the Six Day War. No Jews
had been allowed into the city to pray at the Kotel since 1948, when
the Israelis lost the Old City in battle. When Jerusalem was recaptured,
Dayan - then Minister of Defense, Rabin - Chief of Staff, and Narkiss
came to the Old City to pray by the Kotel. This photograph shows them
as they walk in the gate, with the verse "When our feet stood within
thy gates Jerusalem" written below in English, and above in Hebrew.
Can be framed easily, and is a must for any Jewish home or Judaica
collection.
Poster measures 19-2/3" x 27-1/2" (50 cm x 70 cm.). Please email me
