You Are Not Here to Buy a Painting – You Are Here to Bring the Soul of Jerusalem Home
Acclaimed Israeli artist Alex Levin presents an extraordinary collection of Jerusalem paintings, capturing the spiritual and historical essence of the Holy City. With over 30 years of artistic dedication, Levin's artwork is more than just decorative—it's an emotional journey through time, faith, and heritage.
For centuries, Jerusalem has stood as a beacon of hope and devotion for Jewish people around the world. It is a city where ancient traditions meet modern life, where prayers echo against the Western Wall, and where the past and future intertwine. Inspired by its deep historical significance, Levin has created timeless masterpieces that bring the beauty and spirituality of Jerusalem into homes, synagogues, and galleries worldwide.
The Inspiration Behind Alex Levin's Jerusalem Paintings
Alex Levin's artistic journey began when he first visited Jerusalem in 1990, an experience that left a profound impact on his work. From the moment he laid eyes on the golden-stoned streets, the sacred Western Wall, and the towering domes of synagogues, he knew his mission was to preserve the city's essence through art.
'Every stone in Jerusalem tells a story, and my goal is to capture that story in every brushstroke,' says Levin. 'Through my paintings, I want to bring people closer to the heart of the Jewish world.'
Levin's work is deeply rooted in Jewish history and faith, often depicting the most sacred landmarks of Jerusalem. His Jewish paintings frequently feature:
The Western Wall ( Kotel Paintings ) – A symbol of Jewish resilience and prayer, this ancient remnant of the Second Temple is a focal point in many of his pieces.
The Tower of David – A historic fortress representing the strength and endurance of Jerusalem.
The Gates of the Old City – Each gate tells a story of Jerusalem's role as a crossroads of civilizations.
The Jerusalem Temple – An artistic vision of the Holy Temple, evoking a deep spiritual connection.
Bringing the Spirit of Jerusalem Into Your Home
Levin's Jerusalem wall art offers more than just a visual experience - it creates a deep emotional and spiritual connection. His unique use of color, texture, and light transports viewers to the heart of the city, allowing them to feel the warmth of sunrise over the Kotel or the peaceful glow of Shabbat candles reflecting on Jerusalem's ancient walls.
Whether displayed in a home, office, or synagogue, these paintings serve as a powerful reminder of Jerusalem's everlasting significance. They also make meaningful gifts for weddings, anniversaries, bar/bat mitzvahs, and Jewish holidays.
A Vision of the Past, Present, and Future
Beyond capturing the historical beauty of Jerusalem, Levin's paintings also offer a vision of hope and peace. His work reflects the unity of Jewish people and the dream of a brighter future, where Jerusalem remains a source of faith, strength, and inspiration.
As an artist, Levin continuously explores new ways to honor Jewish heritage through his work, from traditional oil paintings to modern artistic techniques, including stained-glass-inspired designs and monochrome studies that highlight Jerusalem's architectural grandeur.

TIFF and Oct. 7 documentary makers come to ‘resolution,' film will be screened after dayslong back-and-forth
In a dramatic U-turn, the Toronto International Film Festival has said it will now show a documentary about Hamas' Oct. 7 attack on Israel, and in a joint statement with the filmmakers apologized for originally yanking the film. 'We are pleased to share that The Road Between Us: The Ultimate Rescue will be an official TIFF selection at the festival this year, where we believe it will contribute to the vital conversations that film is meant to inspire,' the statement from TIFF CEO Cameron Bailey and filmmaker Barry Avrich read. 6 Militants transport a reportedly captured Israeli woman via motorcycle in the Gaza strip.

Where to eat in Rome and Sicily
ROME Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up Ditirambo Recommended by a foodie family member (who might be annoyed I'm sharing her favorite special spot), Ditirambo is a classic Roman trattoria. Tucked in a warren of streets near the Campo de'Fiori, the intimate space is the opposite of swanky, with a dark beamed ceiling, pale yellow walls, art by local artists, simple cloths on wood tables, and super-friendly staff. When the one table of loud Americans left, we were the only ones not speaking Italian, creating an atmosphere of hanging out with the locals. But don't let the simplicity of the place fool you. The food is the star here, with fresh seasonal ingredients driving the menu's weekly specials and fixed choices. 'I piatti di mezzo' (middle dishes), a cross between an appetizer and a first course, include vegetarian choices such as eggplant meatballs, and zucchini millefeuille with smoked buffalo mozzarella. All breads and pastas are homemade, including filled pastas — ravioli, tortelloni, and such — and the Roman classic cacio e pepe, basically Pecorino Romano cheese and black pepper that is made slightly differently by every chef in town. Other seasonal specialties include rigatoni alla carbonara made with pork cheeks, farro pappardelle with rabbit ragù, sea bream with capers, tomatoes, and olives, and suckling roasted pig. Our choice, fettuccini with fresh and fried artichokes and bacon, was sublime. We paired it with a local white Lazio wine, chosen from an extensive list. Open for lunch and dinner. Advertisement della Cancelleria, 74, 00186 Roma +39-06-687-1626, At Sora Margherita in Rome's Jewish Quarter, the walls are covered with handwritten thank-you notes from happy patrons. Necee Regis Sora Margherita We had hoped to try a certain restaurant in the Jewish Quarter, but alas, it was closed for lunch that day. While wandering the neighborhood, an unexpected downpour led us running to the door of Sora Margherita, a tiny restaurant where we had one of the best meals of our trip. The place was packed with diners, but the friendly hostess managed to squeeze two soggy patrons into the one-room space and produced a handwritten menu of pastas, salads, and traditional Roman dishes: grilled marinated lamb, rustic chicken stew, steak with grilled vegetables, and fried salt cod. We ordered carciofi alla giudia, a deep-fried artichoke dish originating in Rome's Jewish community; polpete al sugo, three massive meatballs in a rich red sauce; and fettuccine cacio e pepe. When the Italian diners at our elbows were served what we had just ordered, we knew we had selected wisely. The smashed artichoke was like a golden sunflower, with leaves as crispy as potato chips that then melted in the mouth. Astonishing. The pasta was just peppery and cheesy enough, though our new friends suggested that next time we try it with added ricotta. The meatballs, flavorful and filling, were the perfect accompaniment to a glass of wine. As the lunch crowd departed, we could view the walls covered with handwritten thank-you notes from happy patrons. We were too full to order dessert, but our neighbors insisted we try a bite of their ricotta and sour cherry tart, a classic Jewish Quarter sweet. Open for lunch and dinner, with outside dining when weather permits. Advertisement Piazza delle Cinque Scole, 30, 00186, Roma +39-06-687-4216, The cool interior of Glass, a restaurant serving typical Sicilian dishes and pizza in the hilltop town of Piazza Armerina. Necee Regis SICILY Glass Clinging to a hilltop in central Sicily, the small town of Piazza Armerina is a terrific place for lunch when visiting the nearby Villa Romana del Casale, a not-to-be-missed fourth-century UNESCO World Heritage site known for its more than 37,000 square feet of well-preserved Roman mosaics. Before visiting the villa, we were hiking the maze of Piazza Armerina's medieval streets on an unsuccessful hunt for pizza when someone directed us to Glass. Stepping from the bright, hot sunshine into the cool stone building, we sat beneath the arched ceiling — hungry, tired — and learned that pizza is only served at dinner. When traveling, it's easier to pivot than to force a plan that isn't working. So, we stayed, and were thrilled that we did. It was tough to choose among the many offerings of typical Sicilian foods: Antipasti with Mortadella, speck, caponata, fresh ricotta, eggplant rolls and more; beef tartar with red wine reduction; fusilli with eggplant and almonds; hand-rolled pasta twists with cream of pistachios from Bronte (a town near Mount Etna famous for its small sweet pistachios only harvested every two years); fusilli with asparagus and speck; grilled Angus beef with arugula and parmesan; rolled veal stuffed with ham and pistachios; and hand-rolled macaroni with sausage and fennel. We chose the latter two dishes, and left sated and satisfied. Maybe someday we'll return for pizza. Open for lunch and dinner.

Necee Regis Portocostanza I'd be lax if I didn't mention the prevalence of locally-caught seafood in Sicily. Sardines, anchovies, shrimp, squid, shellfish, and finfish, including swordfish, are served in pasta, grilled, fried, and raw. For a special celebratory meal, a friend in Palermo directed us to Portocostanza, a stylish restaurant overlooking the port. The creative menu focuses on Sicilian flavors, with a farm-to-table approach that includes organic vegetables and herbs acquired from local farmers and its own 5-acre garden. Watching boats lazily glide past our tableside floor-to-ceiling glass windows, we bypassed the tasting menu and shared several dishes for our lunchtime meal: red shrimp crudo with Sicilian avocado on sauteed spinach with a grapefruit reduction; spaghetti with mixed seafood in light tomato cream with capers and mint-flavored breadcrumbs; and snapper fillet with confit cherry tomato cream and Salina caper powder. All were terrific, along with house-made breads, and we'd happily return to taste the many other tempting options, such as risotto with fish broth and shrimp; crispy octopus on smoked eggplant; and mixed salad with tuna tartar, mango cream, and almond flakes. They also have a pizza menu and serve happy hour snacks on an outside upper deck. Reservations are strongly suggested for both lunch and dinner.

Necee Regis Bollicine Palermo is known for its street food, especially arancina, cheese or meat-filled deep-fried rice balls, and for its gelaterias serving a wide selection of fruity, nutty and chocolate/coffee flavors. We sampled many of these wondrous things, but nothing — really nothing — could outshine the pizza at Bollicine. Located around the corner from the historic Teatro Santa Cecilia, where we attended a top-notch jazz performance, the restaurant's outdoor seating was packed and festive on a Saturday night, with service friendly and quick. The menu offered a variety of antipasti, pastas, burgers, and salads, but the draw for us was the 20-plus pizzas. It was difficult to choose among offerings that included sausage, champignon mushrooms, anchovies, Mortadella, smoked scamorza, Gorgonzola, speck, red pumpkin cream, spicy salami, pistachio pesto, ricotta, sundried tomatoes, eggplant, rapini, and more. Our friends are tired of hearing us swoon over our choice — the Salento — with its fire-singed, pillowy crust topped with salty prosciutto, sweet yellow cherry tomatoes, creamy Buffalo mozzarella, and earthy, nutty artichokes. When I return to Palermo, this will be my first meal. Piazza Rivoluzione, 13, 90133 Palermo +39-327-002-6314, Necee Regis can be reached at . Necee Regis can be reached at

Israel's 'Dancing with the Stars' routine goes viral with Trump and Melania tribute
A routine on Israel's "Dancing with the Stars" made headlines this week for its humorous tribute to President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump. In the recently aired episode of "Rokdim Im Kokhavim," the Israeli version of the popular reality dance competition television show, two professional dancers appear dressed as the president, in his signature blue suit and red tie, and the first lady in the navy blue outfit she wore to the inauguration earlier this year. As they listen to the National Anthem play, the dancer portraying Trump attempts to kiss Melania before she shoos him away and fixes his tie. The music then switches to the Village People's "YMCA" as the pair hit the dance floor. The dancer portraying Melania switches into an American flag outfit as the dancer portraying Trump breaks out into his signature dance moves. Clips of the light-hearted routine were widely shared on social media platform X, where they drew millions of views. "Israel 'Dance with the Stars' TV show featured one of the pairs dressed as President Trump and Melania Trump, and they absolutely killed it," one account posted on X, along with a clip from the show that drew over two million views. "This is a must-watch." The routine drew praise from the president's supporters on social media. "This is very fun!" former Trump campaign senior adviser Steve Cortes lauded. "An overseas 'Dancing with the Stars' pair dressed as Pres Trump & the First Lady and CRUSHING it…" "MUST WATCH!!" pro-Trump political commentator April Silverman also applauded, writing that the pair "absolutely killed it." The White House did not immediately return Fox News Digital's request for comment.
