The Bezalel School of Arts & Crafts on Abyssinia Street in Jerusalem, established by Professor Boris Schatz in 1906 (pictured on the left in the white suit). The schools goals were: to train the people of Jerusalem in crafts, develop original Jewish art and support Jewish artists, and to find visual expression for the much yearned-for national and spiritual independence that seeks to create a synthesis between European artistic traditions and the Jewish design traditions of the East and West, and to integrate it with the local culture of the Land of Israel. Boris Schatz ) was a Lithuanian Jewish artist and sculptor who settled in Palestine. Date: 1906
