Marcus, superb photograph. My grandparents were Russian Orthodox Jews and my grandmother took care of the senior rabbi. As a little kid, I never could understand why a woman so devoted & religious couldn't enter the synagogue through the principle doors, but I could. In fact all the women were upstairs, veiled not only in the dark clothes & coverings, but were behind a carved wooden screen.
