Raphael Abecassis was born in Morocco in 1953 and immigrated to Israel as a young child. He later went on to study at the Beer Sheva College of Education. Many of his works recount the stories of the Bible and are characterized by a refreshing and original array of colors, as well as excellent technical skills. His artistic talent has earned him renown and prizes including for an Independence Day Poster in 1986, the Ministry of Education Award for his piece, the "Psalms of David", and his designing for illuminated text for President Chaim Herzog's speech at the Western Wall in honor of Israel's 40th birthday.
