Yad Vashem Memorial Gifts

GREETING CARDS "THE FLOWER SERIES"
From the Yad Vashem Art Collection

A hand-picked selection of 10 Greeting cards + 10 envelopes

Many of the works hosted by Yad Vashem depict the reality of life during the Holocaust. But along with the urge to document daily life, artists searched for a way to break free from their cruel environment, and also provided their fellow inmates with an opportunity to forget, even just for a moment, the hardships of the ghettos and camps.
