Ephraim Moses LilienEphraim Moses Lilien (1874–1925) was an art nouveau illustrator and print-maker particularly noted for his art on Jewish and Zionist themes. He is sometimes called the \"first Zionist artist.\"
BiographyEphraim Moses Lilien (Maurycy Lilien) was born in Drohobycz, Galicia in 1874.
In 1889-1893 Lilien learned painting and graphic techniques at the Academy of Arts in Krakow. He studied under Polish painter Jan Matejko from 1890 to 1892. As a member of the Zionist Movement, Lilien traveled to Ottoman Palestine several times between 1906 and 1918. He accompanied Boris Schatz to Jerusalem to help establish the Bezalel Art School.
Moshe Ephraim Lilien was one of the two artists to accompany Boris Schatz to Eretz Israel in 1906 for the purpose of establishing Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design, and taught the school\'s first class. Although his stay in the country was short-lived, he left his indelible stamp on the creation of an Eretz Israel style, placing biblical subjects in the Zionist context and oriental settings, conceived in an idealized Western design. In the first two decades of the century, Lilien\'s work was the model for the Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design group.
Artistic careerLilien is known for his famous photographic portrait of Theodor Herzl. He often used Herzl as a model, considering his features a perfect representation of the \"New Jew.\" In 1896, he received an award for photography from the avantgarde magazine Jugend. Lilien illustrated several books. In 1923, an exhibition of his work opened in New York.
Lilien\'s illustrated books include Juda (1900), Biblically-themes poetry by Lilien\'s Christian friend, Börries Freiherr von Münchausen, and Lieder des Ghetto (Songs of the Ghetto) (1903), Yiddish poems by Morris Rosenfeld translated into German.
(Source: Wikipedia, the free Lilien was born in Austria and formally studied art in Germany. He visited Palestine in the mid 1890\'s and captured the images of the people and the landscape using photography. During his stay, he assembled an extraordinary photographic collection, which he used to create his Biblical scenes of the Holyland. The works were distributed in several formats: prints, etchings, posters, postcards, and illustrated books of the Bible.
