ПИЛИХОВСКИЙ Леопольд (1869, Калишская губ. – 1933)

Leopold Pilichowski

From 1908 on, Pilichowski was an active Zionist, and he painted portraits of Max Nordau, Naḥum Sokolow, Ahad Ha-Am, and Ḥayim Naḥman Bialik. His most famous portrait (now in the Central Zionist Archives, Jerusalem) shows Theodore Herzl standing on a mountaintop as if staring into the Promised Land.
