Street Musicians, 1932

Another of the 17 photos I received from the Jewish Historical Institute (ZIH) in Warsaw of my great-grandfather’s paintings. This one was obtained by the museum in 1946. I wish I knew where all the pieces that were obtained in 1946 were found. Did the person with whom Moshe hid the pieces hand them over or were they discovered in an abandoned home/barn/basement? Wish I knew…

This piece has been titled “Uliczni muzykanci” which translates to, I believe, The street musicians. It is dated 1932. The small children in the piece remind me of another#mrynecki piece, Curious Children. There seems to be some magic and wonderment at the musicians playing in the street.
