The Light of Youth, [1937], a painting by Maurice Sochachewsky (1918-1969).

Maurice Sochachewsky (1918-1969), born in East London, England, studied at St. Martin's School of Art. In ca. 1937, he lived for eight months in the mining town of Talywain in Wales, documenting the miners' lives and hard lot. During World War II, he served in the Royal Welch Fusiliers and was wounded during the Battle of Normandy. In 1949, shortly after the establishment of the State of Israel, Sochachewsky visited Israel, sketching its views. He illustrated several Yiddish publications published in Britain in the 1940s. Several of his works are exhibited in the Ben Uri Gallery.
