Discover 'Contrast of Shadows' by Shimon Hacohen, a poignant collection of sketches from 1967. This Third and Revised Edition offers a unique visual narrative, believed to depict scenes from a prison or concentration camp during the Holocaust era.

Printed in Israel, this rare item provides a glimpse into a significant historical period through the artist's eyes.
