Original photograph of the Admor of Blazhov after the Shoah. Framed
Early photograph featuring the Admor Rabbi Yisrael Shapira, the Rabbi of Blazhov, accompanied on either side by companions. Taken after the Shoah. Size: 12x14.5cm. Framed 23x28cm. Light defects, overall good condition.
Admor Rabbi Yisrael Shapira of Blazhov (1890-1990) was the son of Rabbi Yehoshua of Ribatitsch, son-in-law of Rabbi Moshe Menachem Malchior of Radomask. He served as rabbi in Prochnik, and after his father’s death he gave up his father’s rabbinate in Blazhov so his brother could take it, and he settled in Istrik in 1932, where he served as Admor of Blazhov. In 1936 he published his grandfather’s Zvi L’Tzaddik, with his notes. He was saved during the Shoah: he served as Rabbi in Graiding under orders from the Nazis, but he escaped from the Belzitz camp together with Shraga Feivel Perlberger of Vilitzka. After the Shoah he moved to Brussels and then to the United States, where he served as a rabbi in New York. Throughout his life he talked about the Shoah and its tragedies and he would not desist. His step-son Rabbi Zvi Yehuda succeeded him.
