«Витражи Шагала» в Хадассе Эйн-Карем
Возможно, Вы удивитесь тому, что больница Хадасса является не только одним из лучших медицинских центров Иерусалима, но и хранит в своей синагоге блестящий образец еврейского искусства – витражи Марка Шагала. Двенадцать великолепных витражей, описывающих 12 колен Израилевых, отражают глубокую любовь художника к еврейскому народу и к человечеству в целом.
Большинство сюжетов Шагал брал из Библии, например, благословление Иаковом сыновей своих и благословление Моисеем колен Израилевых. Каждый блестяще выполненный витраж содержит цитаты из Библии и выполнен в одной цветовой гамме. Создание этих произведений искусства заняло два года, и в день 50-летия больницы в феврале 1962 они были торжественно освящены. Никто, кроме самого художника, не смог бы так четко выразить сущность произведения: «Пока я работал, я чувствовал, как будто мои родители наблюдали за мной. А вместе с ними миллионы исчезнувших евреев – вчера и тысячи лет назад».

EщеIt was wonderful to go to the information booth inside Hadassah Hospital and get an English tour guide to show us the Chagall Windows. She was quite informative and we learned a lot. (You cannot just walk in and view them- you need to be escorted in). We learned the back story of asking Chagall to donate to the hospital. This would have earned a 5 but parking at the hospital is very difficult and stressful. If you are able to take public transportation or a taxi to the hospital, it would alleviate the stress.
