The son of the Yiddish Galician poet Mendel Neugroschel, Joachim developed a special interest in Yiddish literature. He died in 2011 at the age of 73.
This work is in excellent condition; unframed - and with a beautiful message - WE LOVE YOU. And we promise you: you will love it. Makes a memorable gift too.

Provenance: "We Love You" was a gift of love from Louise Bourgeois to her friend, renowned literary translator and art critic Joachim Neugrosche, and it was acquired from his collection.
