Round table and one of two Thonet chairs, in my new residency in Tel-Aviv, March 2020. Yes, just during the beginning of corona-days. The furnitures came from Berlin in 1933 in 'lift' with my grandparents' belongings. The photo in iPad: My father, 9 years old (and his Teddy...) with my grandfather, dinning in Tel-Aviv, 1933. Photo by my grandmother, the photographer Frieda Mayer.
