The Poet Elisheva – Postcard from Belgium
Postcard with the portrait of the poet Elisheva Bichovsky. Antwerp: Jacobowitz printing press, [1920?]. Yiddish.
A citation from the poet's writings appears under the portrait and refers to her split Russian-Jewish identity. Elisheva (1888-1949 – pen name of Elizaveta Zhirkova-Bichovsky) was born in Russia to a Provoslav Christian family and made aliya to Eretz Israel in 1925. Missing corner. Several stains.
