Kaplan's `Tevye' Now at Garelick's

Russian lithographer Anatoly
Kaplan has brought his illustra-
tion of Sholem Aleichem's most
famous character, Tevye, to Gare-
lick's Gallery for an exhibition now
through Nov. 25.
In "Tevye the Milkman," Kap-
lan's works depict the life of a
Jewish family living in the Uk-
raine in the early years of this
century. The hero, Tevye the milk-
man, is a poor but pious Jew who
remains full of humor and hope
despite the difficult life of Czarist
Russia.
Tevye has five daughters,
each symbolic of the tendencies
of Jewish society in Czarist Rus-
sia. Despite many calamities,
including one daughter marrying
out of the Jewish faith, Tevye,
his wife Golde, and their daugh-
ters remain attached by a
strong bond of love. Eventually
the family is forced by the
Czarist police to leave their lit-
tle village of Hasrilevka, but
despite his misfortunes he sees
life and people with optimistic
hope and never loses faith in
either God or his fellow men.
In 1964, the story was converted
into a successful Broadway play,
"Fiddler on the Boot."
Kaplan was born in Rogotchev,
Byelorussia, in 1902. From 1921 to
1927 he studied at the Leningrad
Academy of Arts and worked as a
theatrical designer for 10 years.
He has been a member of the Uni-
on of Soviet Artists since 1939 and
his lithographs have had great
success in Russia.
William Tall, guest critic for the
Detroit Free Press, writes of the
exhibit: "Kaplan reaches deeply
into the Russian iconographic past,
