The central painting shows a landscape of a rugged coastline. A lion and a tiger rest peacefully under the shelter of a pine tree as the sun sets. The text is calligraphed below on a ground of earth color. At the bottom a frieze in the shape of an opened Torah scroll displays the Seven Species of Israel. The quote in gold is from the poetess and World War II resistance fighter Rachel, “ May these, my God, never cease: the sand and the sea, the sound of the waters, the lightning of the heavens, the prayer of man.”
