So we know now for sure the place but we do not know who the woman is and the year the photograph was taken. Most probably during Korczak's second visit to Eretz Israel.

I thought to start with, that the photos, both of them, see below, were taken at the Bahá'í Gardens. In Edward Poznanski's photo one can see Haifa Harbour (Haifa Port) in the background.





Please find the Tailor Auslander shop in the Haifa Telephone Directory from the thirties.
