Yaakov Israel - The Quest for the Man on the White Donkey, Schilt Publishing, 2013, Amsterdam

 

As per the Orthodox Jewish tradition, the Messiah (the Prophet) will arrive riding on a white donkey. 
A few years ago, as I was photographing near the Dead Sea, a Palestinian man rode past me on his white donkey and I took a picture of him. It was after having developed this plate that I realized that I had encountered my “Messiah”; it was this chance encounter which brought me to initiate the body of work that carries the name: The Quest for the Man on the White Donkey. (from the publisher)

Hardcover cloth bound with dust jacket, designed by Victor Levie | MV LevievanderMeer, edited by Levie/Israel.
