Lost and Found - A Family Photo Album

You have arrived at the Rosenberg and Winnick Galleries.  Now on view is “Lost and Found, a Family Photo Album.”

Presented by Yeshiva University Museum, this exhibition explores the remarkable story of a pre-War family photo album that was owned by Anna Warshawska who was deported from the Kovno Ghetto in 1943. Prior to her deportation, she smuggled the album out of the city’s wartime Jewish ghetto entrusting it to a non-Jewish Lithuanian family for safekeeping. After the album’s chance discovery in 2013, it was reunited with Warshawska’s descendants.
