Hi Amalia,
There is an image of the painting online on the website of the Israel Ministry for Foreign Affairs, on the page about higher education. /MFA/Facts+About+Israel/Education/EDUCATION-+Higher+Education.htm The URL for the image itself is http://www.mfa.gov.il/NR/rdonlyres/832BE5F2-4AFE-43FB-ADA2-8090C9A61DBE/0/MFAJ0byl0.jpg If for some reason the URL doesn't work, go to Google Images, type in "Pilichowski university," and then search. (Note that the name is Pilichowski, w/ an i after the L.) The painting will be the first item that comes up. Unfortunately, the quality of the online image is not great. It's an enormous painting and a small image. The original is phenomenal in its detail. You can recognize each of the dignitaries present on the dais. In the audience are representatives of every sort of person who lived in Palestine at the time, including Bedouin in traditional headdress, Hadassah nurses in uniform, etc. Hope this is helpful! Have you heard about all the changes about to happen at Akiba? - new name, new location, new head of school!
