NORTH ADAMS - A Jewish mural lost for decades has been found in an attic in North Adams.Dedham historian Carol Clingan is passionate about Jewish Preservation and Jewish history. 'When I first saw it, my jaw dropped! Here is this treasure - this absolute treasure - it's obviously Jewish,' Clingan said. While working on another project, someone happened to come across this 100-plus-year-old mural in the attic of an old building in North Adams.
The image became the décor for the sanctuary in the synagogue in North Adams. 'Then these people clearly wanted to have something that looked like what they came from and what their home,' she said. TThe mural consists of Jewish motifs. 'The pride of place goes to the Ten Commandments - the tablets. In Hebrew, on the top, 'Know before whom you stand.' It's a little faded, but there are two American flags.
