Men at prayer before the Wailing Wall

In the narrow paved lane before the Wailing Wall (Western Wall), a row of men in long dark coats and broad-brimmed hats stands facing the huge worn blocks, some bending close to the stone in prayer, one wrapped in a striped prayer shawl; two men in the foreground turn toward each other. The right of Jews to pray at the Wall, which the Mandate regulated, had been the occasion of the riots of August 1929.
