"Small photo album" Vilnius Jewish Street ", 1931. published in Zurich and Leipzig in four languages, has long been known as a bibliophilic rarity, shrouded in distinctive legends and vague assumptions. Experts in photography, Judaism or the history of Vilnius regarded it as an exceptional publication in which the Jerusalem of Lithuania became the object of an avant-garde experiment. This photo art experiment was performed with an excellent knowledge of technical methods, with a focus on the unique local atmosphere, with a modern ironic but warm look. At the center of the lens is the heart of Jewish Vilnius. ”
