“Coming down” was featured in Bagels and Lox – Jewish Photographers Unite!
This is, of course, Moses descending Mt. Sinai with the Tablets of Testimony (in Hebrew: לוחות הברית Luchot HaBrit – “the tablets [of] the covenant”).
Photo taken at Hillside Memorial Park and Mortuary, Jewish cemetery, Los Angeles, California. Shot with my Canon PowerShot S5 IS camera. I have no idea who the artist is. I would appreciate any information.
That’s wonderful. Samuel our “Theatre creator” son…. is having the role of God… when trying to write in a naive way… the famous Ten Commandments on stone… it is metaphorical… but this one… with Moses emerging from the rocky background has a feeling of livitation.. and then.. at the same time the dimension of humanity….it is really intersting.

I thought it was quite special… Thanks, Rosa! Sounds interesting, your theater version, though you give only very little detail;-)

well captured, what an interesting scene
Thanks, Mark! I thought it was simply brilliant… or brilliantly simple, for religious art.

Excellent work Gili
Thanks, Thea! It’s not my work, though… not sure whose, exactly.

IS this bronze on stone?? It rocks—no pun intended. Love it very much.
Excellent, excellent.
Peace,

Yes, it is… I love it too… no idea who the artist is. It’s in a Jewish cemetery in LA, on a wall.
