A brick

Melbourne, Australia

Pbaser Jola Dziubinska published a photo of the remains of the former wall of the Warsaw Ghetto. One of the bricks has been taken to the Melbourne Holocaust Museum. I took this picture of the stone to make a reconnection with this wall through Pbase.
Jola's picture you can find here:

What a great idea, Mieke.

Oh, this is amazing. Jola is quite the photographer and a very good friend of mine. I love this image. The story behind it is sad but a piece of history lives on in your country now and is being well taken care of. I hope we never see another holocaust!

When they spoke about Wall they didn'y know it will be happily destroyed.
It's a warm idea to recall the History...!

What a wonderful idea Mieke - I agree, making the connection back to Jola's image is a wonderfully poignant and human thing to do... V
