During WWI, a bullet was shot by a Russian soldier towards the heart of a Jew. The bullet hit the siddur this Jew carried with him, thus sparing his life. To commemorate this miraculous event, the family brought the siddur to a craftsman to create this lithographic print which displays the siddur showing the perforation made by the bullet.
