As part of this Shalom Sussex project we decided to create a series of eight case studies of some of the people we’ve explored in the research section of our site.
We hope this will make some of this history more easily accessible and visually appealing to those exploring the themes of Judaism, Sussex, the First World War and history in general.
We also have six separate postcards which you are also free to download. These can be found below the case studies.
Both the case studies, and the postcards are free to use and share but do please credit Strike a Light – Arts & Heritage (@strikealight) if you do so.
You can view these individually below. For a higher resolution download, request a pdf of the case studies combined from contact@strikealight.org
Those we’ve chosen to show are:
Jack Terresfield, Lady Eva Mond Isaacs, Edith Ayrton Zangwill, Ludwig Messel, Abraham Dudkin, Hertha Ayrton, Sir Frederick Stern, and Alice and Dorothy Englebert.
