Dimensions : 40cm x 26 Artist biography Victor (Vitja) Elschansky was born in Schmérinka (Vinnytsia district) in the USSR on July 12, 1913. A Jew, he fled the pogroms and left the USSR. He settled in Belgium and worked for the "Belga" press agency. During the Second World War, as a Jew, he was arrested and imprisoned in the Breendonk concentration camp (Belgium). At the end of the war, trained as a chemist, he embarked on a successful engineering career, working as a scientific translator for the Solvay Company. But his real passion was photography.

This "Subjectif Fotografie" movement, led by Otto Steinert, spread all over the world. Numerous books and exhibitions (USA, Japan, Europe) put the movement on the map.
