The Institute of Archaeology at the Hebrew University on Mount Scopus gave a wonderful tour this morning.
More about that in the coming days.
.
In the Museum for Jewish Antiquities I was leaning over, trying to read in the glass display case about the 1931-35 excavations in Samaria, and a reflection kept getting in my way.
Then I realized it must be a sign from James and it wanted to join in his Weekend Reflections.
.
It was one of many high windows, with a graceful grate and a tree branch.
But why the light became bands of pink and pale blue, this I don't understand.
.
The historic building, built in 1941 in the International style, has a magic all its own, even without the fantastic treasures inside.
.
Maybe today's persistent colored reflection was like a window to the past.

oh I agree. The Institute of Archaeology at the Hebrew University on Mount Scopus really does have interesting architecture in its own right. I always tell students to spend as much time looking at museum/gallery architecture as they spend on the collections.
