The Spanish Synagogue, Prague. November 2003.

It seems there are some places so inspiring that even the Nazis couldn’t bring themselves to destroy them. Of all the synagogues in Prague this one has the most visual impact. It now houses an exhibition of artefacts from the Nazi period as a way of commemorating the thousands of Jews from the city who were murdered. The people with the slightly ghostly expressions are looking at the exhibition cabinets, and inadvertently adding atmosphere to my picture.
