Hannukkah is a work from Denis Barry’s collection.

Hannukkah. In Hebrew, the word Chanukkah means “inauguration” or “dedication”. It is a feast that commemorates the consecration of a new altar in the Temple of Jerusalem, erected following the freedom conquered by the Hellenes, in the second century BC. An armed revolt led by the elderly priest Matthias allowed “the victory of the spirit over the brutal force, which threatened Israel in its religious and spiritual life ”.  Thanks to his skill with computer graphics and mathematics, the artist managed to create a festival of lights to honor this Jewish holiday.
