Congregation Ahavath Sholom is excited to announce another virtual tour of their Jewish Museum, led by renowned lecturer Rena Tobey. This latest tour, titled "Tissot and the Hebrew Bible," showcases original designs by the French painter James Tissot (1836-1902) from a collection of over 350 paintings depicting stories from the Hebrew Bible. Tissot's watercolor illustrations cover all the books from Genesis to the Prophets and are highly cherished in the Jewish Museum's collection. These illustrations, presented as cinematic vignettes, have had a significant influence on popular culture for many years.
