Golda Meir in here kitchen, January 01, 1950 (colorized)
Note to my followers
This photo was one of 11 black and white photos I colorized for a special issue of Yediot Aharonot during Israel's 70th year celebration.
Here is the link to the article.
A typical 1950's kitchen in Golda Meir's apartment.
Note the white (now famous) Golda shoes and the small trash can on the bottom left side.
Back at those days we did not manufacture so much garbage as we do today.
Back at the days when public figures lived in modesty.
The original black and white photo was taken by David Rubinger, a well known Israeli icon in photography who had a great talent to become intimate with politicians.
Two more photos from the same sashion.
Golda's kitchen was where later on (during here prime ministership) the security cabinet of the Israeli government would meet to discuss issues of national security.
To this day the term security cabinet (in hebrew- security kitchenette)
is used having its roots derived from Golda's kitchen.
This next photo is of Golda Meir in here new and improved kitchen
Another later photo of Golda's kitchen.
