Haim Nachman Bialik during his visit to Kovna in 1930 - group photo


A photograph of Haim Nachman Bialik during his visit to Kovna in October 1930. The guy standing to Bialik's left is Aharon Pertsikovich, a youth in a Jewish youth movement who accompanied Bialik on that visit. On the back of the photograph is an ink stamp of "Society for the History and Ethnography of the Jews in Lithuania".


For another photograph of Bialik from the same visit see here

10x8 cm. Slight loss in the lower right corner. Very good condition.


Attached: a photograph of a girl next to a tombstone that was erected in memory of Bialik in Ramat Gan in 1939. On the tombstone is written: "A tribute to our poets H. N. Bialik... Ramat Gan 1939". (Bialik moved to live in Ramat Gan in 1933, where he spent the last year of his life, while often walking on one of the hills in the city. "Here I found the rest I was looking for, " he said. Sitting in this place, the fresh air and the view of the sea, inspired him. It is said that he wrote his last two poems: "Farewell" and "Widows". In 1939, on the fifth anniversary of his death, the Ramat Gan local council erected a bench in his memory on which is written: "A tribute to our poet H.N. Bialik, a place he chose for his walks on his Sabbath days In Ramat-Gan, 1939"| - this is the bench that appears in the photograph before us).
