The speaker, who is Head of Education, National Galleries of Scotland, will speak about the 1904 portrait of Israel Zangwill, the famous Jewish novelist and playwright, by the artist Walter Sickert. She will discuss what light the portrait sheds on the quick pace of change affecting Jewish thinkers and intellectuals in the late 19th/early 20th century.
