Dinning at home in Tel Aviv, 1933/2020

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.

Olim cards (entering immigration cards), Haifa, 8.11.1933. “Mayer” was first written by the clerk as in Yiddish spelling, then corrected to “Meir” as it remained since in Hebrew documents. It took me years to embrace the German spelling “Mayer” again.
