Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Wilshire Blvd. Wall Murals / Photography by Tom Bonner. Job ID 5901
Mural at Wilshire Boulevard Temple, Los Angeles, by Hugo Ballin from the book "Hugo Ballin's Los Angeles" by Caroline Luce Cropped to show detail of Jacob. Rabbi Edgar F. Magnin described Ballin's murals in a book published in 1974: "The second painting depicts Jacob and his sons. They are holding on to the golden tree of their heritage, which also typifies the family tree of Israel, since the twelve tribes are supposed to have been descended from Jacob and his sons. Jacob's position is at the trunk of the tree and the arms of his sons suggest the branches. The expression on the countenance of Jacob is one of resignation. In the corner on the right, one beholds a faint glimpse of Jacob's ladder reaching from earth to heaven a symbol of revelation." |
