July 18, 1925

Ephraim Moses Lilien (May 23, 1874 to July 18, 1925) was born in Drohobych, Ukraine and
ended his days in Badenweiler, Germany.

Here is an example of the "Marvellous black-and-white work from a Galician artist whose drawings were predominately concerned with Jewish and Zionist themes... [There is] a small monograph about the artist, The New Art of an Ancient People; The Work of Ephraim Mose Lilien (1906) which can be downloaded at the Internet Archive."
