Description

Professionally printed and matted 10x15 inch photo, signed by artist.


This photograph of the entryway to the Glace Bay Synagogue in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia was taken in Fall 2007. The once-thriving Jewish community is now very small since with the closing of the coal mines and steel plant families moved elsewhere to find work. Only a small community stayed in Glace Bay, mostly seniors.

Photographer Karen Nieuwland loves to wander with her camera and catch lights, colors, details and textures. The spiritual aspect of a place is also
important to her.
