It’s been hard to share or say anything. On the one hand because of the so far unprecedented cruelty of the still ongoing war, while on another hand because of the personal difficulties and loss that arose from it. While there is a lot that I miss from the life before October 7th, there is also an intense feeling of togetherness, giving and humbleness. And there is also art which I would love to show you:
Here is ’s interpretation of Picasso’s famous Guernica from 1937 (painting in comment). Thank you Oren Zwang for that comparison. I’ll let you be the judge.

In an ancient Egyptian copper mine. Most probably, copper is the first metal known to human kind. It is one of a few metals to naturally occur in its un-compounded state, as native copper. It was also probably the first to be extracted by smelting from ores.
The Timna Basin, extending west from the Arava Valley in Sinai Peninsula, has been the site of copper mining since around 4000 BC, through the days of the ancient Egyptians, King Solomon, the Romans and the Byzantines until present times. The most abundant copper-containing minerals in Timna region are chrysocolla (copper silicate CuSiO3∙2H2O) and malachite (basic copper carbonate Cu2CO3∙Cu(OH)2), which has contributed its forest-green color to the Timna Copper Mines company logotype. Surveys and excavations in the Timna Valley were conducted between 1959 and 1990. From the surprising findings it is now possible to reconstruct the long and complex history of copper production there, from the Late Neolithic period to the Middle Ages. Mining activities in the Timna Valley reached a peak during the reign of the Pharaohs of the 14th and 12th centuries BCE, when Egyptian mining expeditions, in collaboration with Midianites and local Amalekites, turned the Timna Valley into a large-scale copper industry.
