In the book "Photographers of the Land", by Guy Raz, these photographs are attributed to Yeshayahu Raphaelovich who, together with photographer Eliyahu (Elijah) Meyers, created the album "View of the Land of Israel and the Colonies". However, it is possible that the photographs belong to the series of winery photographs created by the Gissin brothers.
Photographs: approximately 23.5X17.5 cm, glued to cardboard boards (39X33.5cm). The photographs are in good condition. Tears, stains and minor defects on the boards.
