Special: Pirsum Rishon Pictures of the Rebbe

Today, Gimmel Tammuz, marks the 16th anniversary of passing of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson. For many it’s a day of reflection and a day in which remember the Rebbe and, moreover, the tremendous dedication the Rebbe had to Klal Yisroel.

In honor of this special day CrownHeights.info and the Avner Institute would like to present selective photos that are being released for the very first time, from famed photographer Mr. Gadi Hoz of Toronto Canada.

How did Mr. Hoz capture these stunning photos? What was his background? Below we have included a brief bio, including details of how he found his way to the Rebbe and to 770. To learn more about Mr. Hoz’s work or to order prints Click Here.
