A beautiful, artistic portrait style piece of the world famous leader of the modern Chabad movement, Rav Menachem Mendel Schneerson Z"L more commonly known and reffered to as "The Rebbe." This piece fits beautifully into any setting, whether on a dining room or living room wall, or in the Beis Midrash (Study Hall). 

ABOUT: 

Menachem Mendel Schneerson (Hebrew: מנחם מנדל שניאורסון‎; Yiddish: מנחם מענדל שניאורסאהן‎; April 5, 1902 OS – June 12, 1994; AM 11 Nissan 5662 – 3 Tammuz 5754), known to many as the Lubavitcher Rebbe or simply the Rebbe, was a Russian-Empire-born American Orthodox rabbi, and the most recent rebbe of the Lubavitch Hasidic dynasty. He is considered one of the most influential Jewish leaders of the 20th century.

As leader of the Chabad-Lubavitch movement, he took an insular Hasidic group that almost came to an end with the Holocaust, and transformed it into one of the most influential movements in religious world Jewry, with an international network of over 5,000 educational and social centers. The institutions he established include kindergartens, schools, drug-rehabilitation centers, care-homes for the disabled, and synagogues.

Schneerson's published teachings fill more than 300 volumes, and he is noted for his contributions to Jewish continuity and religious thought, as well as his wide-ranging contributions to traditional Torah scholarship. He is recognized as the pioneer of Jewish outreach. During his lifetime, many of his adherents believed that he was the Messiah. Since his death, Chabad has had internal friction between "Messianics" who openly declare he is alive, and "antis", who accept the fact of his death.

In 1978, the U.S. Congress asked President Jimmy Carter to designate Schneerson's birthday as the national Education Day U.S.A. It has been since commemorated as Education and Sharing Day. In 1994, he was posthumously awarded the Congressional Gold Medal for his "outstanding and lasting contributions toward improvements in world education, morality, and acts of charity."Schneerson's resting place attracts both Jews and non-Jews for prayer.
