Unknown Photograph of Rebbetzin Shaina Bracha Dulitzka (Sister of Rebbetzin Shterna Sarah, Wife of the Rashab) – With Letter of Authenticity Signed by Her Great-Niece, Rebbetzin Chanah Gurary, "She Was Always Sending Us Presents"


Photograph of Rebbetzin Shaina Bracha Dulitzka (Schneersohn) – sister of Rebbetzin Shterna Sarah Schneersohn, wife of Rebbe Rashab of Lubavitch; great-aunt of the sisters Rebbetzin Chanah Gurary, Rebbetzin Chaya Mushka Schneersohn (wife of the Lubavitcher Rebbe) and Sheina Horenstein.
Large print on thick paper (with wooden frame).
Letter of authenticity enclosed (handwritten note, in English), signed in Hebrew by her great-niece Rebbetzin Chanah Gurary (1899-1991), eldest daughter of Rebbe Rayatz: "I hereby gift… the photo and frame of my great aunt Shaina Bracha Dulitzka (Schneersohn). She was my grandmother Shterna Sarah's sister. She was very nice to me as a child. She was always sending us presents". Dated 26th November 1989.


Rebbetzin Shaina Bracha was born in ca. 1859 to Rebbe Yosef Yitzchak Schneersohn of Ovruch, son of the Tzemach Tzedek. Her mother, Rebbetzin Chanah, was the daughter of R. Yaakov Yisrael of Cherkasy (son-in-law of the Mitteler Rebbe). She was the sister-in-law of Rebbe Shalom Dov Ber Schneersohn, the Rashab of Lubavitch, whom her younger sister Rebbetzin Shterna Sarah married in 1875. Rebbetzin Shaina Bracha married R. Naftali Hertz Dulitzka of Kaminka. After the passing of her husband in 1912, she remarried R. Moshe Nachum Yerushalmsky. There are many similarities between the portrait of Rebbetzin Shaina Bracha in the present photograph and known portraits of Rebbetzin Shterna Sarah, wife of the Rashab, in her youth (see enclosed pictures).


Approx. 20X25 cm. Wooden frame: approx. 32X30 cm. Fair-good condition. Stains and defects. Print and frame detached.
