Three Piece Judaica Group-Framed Family Photograph, Mezuzah & Bezalel-Style Relief. Group of three early to mid-20th century Judaica items associated with Holy Land and Bezalel-style decorative arts.
1.) Family Photograph in Ornate Metal Frame — Oval metal tabletop frame with cobalt-blue enamel accents housing a black-and-white Jewish family portrait, likely Eastern European or Levantine, early 20th century. The group portrait depicts a bearded patriarch seated with family members posed formally around him. Easel-back stand is intact; surface wear and oxidation consistent with age.
2.) Decorative Mezuzah in Cast Metal Frame — Wall-mounted mezuzah encased in a sculptural metal housing with arched architectural form and fluted columns. Contains printed Hebrew parchment with prayer text visible behind mica or glass window. Reverse exhibits original mounting structure with later stabilization. Likely Bezalel-style or Levantine production, early 20th century.
3.) Bezalel-School Relief Panel / Medallion — Circular relief plaque mounted within an ornate metal backing, depicting a biblical scene with figures gathered beneath a tree in a stylized Bezalel-school manner. The embossed composition reflects the Arts & Crafts and Orientalist aesthetic associated with the Bezalel School of Arts and Crafts, Jerusalem. Reverse reveals hand-worked metal construction and fastening tabs.
