Nine Early Photographs of Palestine – Nahalal, Degania and Kvutzat Kineret – 1920s
Nine early photographs of pioneers and colonies in Palestine. Nahalal, Degania and Kvutzat Kineret, [ca. 1920s].
The photographs depict, among other things: the farm and the eucalyptus orchard in Kvutzat Kineret; a pioneer among palm trees in Degania; different stages of paving a road near Nahalal – transporting rocks with horse carriages, shattering and crashing rocks to gravel with a "new machine"; and more.
Two photographs are signed in the plate: "Zalmania Z. Feigin, Haifa" [Zvi Feigin]. Two photographs are titled in the plate, and all the photographs are titled on the back by hand (German).
Approx. 14.5X9 cm. Good condition. Minor stains and blemishes (mostly to corners, margins and to the back). One photograph has a small open tear at margin.
Provenance: Rimon Family Collection.
