Moses (Moi Ver) Vorobeichic - Ein Ghetto Im Osten - Wilna, Orell Füssli Verlag, 1931, Zürich
Half cloth with printed boards, text in German/Hebrew.
"This little hard cover book was published in the same year the photographer’s masterpiece Paris 80 photographies de Moï Ver. Though far less dynamic than its famous brother this book is still clearly related to Moï Ver’s signature style. Saying that, the collages and layout of this book have a life of their own, and are vaguely reminiscent of a book for children.
The images taken in 1928 show street scenes and architectural views of the Jewish ghetto in the Lithuanian capital Vilnius (or Wilna in German). There also many images of people, some up close, but mostly taken from odd angles viewed from balconies or upper floor windows. It seems that this book is fighting with itself deciding what kind of book it should be. It has so many elements which all came together to fruition in Paris 80 photographies de Moï Ver. Technically the book must have been published after the release of Paris, but this embryonic style and design can only pre-date it. It tends to suggest that the book was conceived much earlier, but the publication delayed.
Although the printing quality is rather poor, the book has a certain charm and is an essential part of Moï Ver’s oeuvre, as well as being an important record of Jewish life in the photographer’s home town Vilnius before World War II." (achtung.photography)
