Memorial Mosaic for the Herzliya Hebrew Gymnasium, Memorial mosaic at Shalom Meir Tower, Tel Aviv, Israel
The mosaic decorates the exterior of Shalom Meir Tower with intricate patterns and detailed images created from small colored tiles and stones.
Artist Nachum Gutman completed this memorial mosaic in 1966 to commemorate the Herzliya Hebrew Gymnasium, the first Hebrew high school established in 1905.
The mosaic design preserves the memory of the original Herzliya Hebrew Gymnasium building, which stood at this location until its demolition in 1962.
Visitors can find this public artwork at the base of Shalom Meir Tower, located at the intersection of Herzl and Ahad Ha'am streets.
The memorial incorporates educational themes and architectural elements from the original gymnasium building, rendered through thousands of individual mosaic pieces.
