One of the pair (see next item) of original lithographs by famous Austrian graphic artist Luigi Kasimir ( 1881-1962) depicts scene in the Jewish Ghetto from Polish small town Gorlize in the time of WWI, dated 1915.
This lithograph is from Kasimir's portfolio "Galizien, 1915", which depict scenes just after the 1914-1915 Russian occupation of Galicia, an East European region, which are now parts of Poland and Ukraine.
Because our lithograph is unsigned by Kasimir, for the proof of authorship see same signed lithograph by Kasimir on our last image.
