The essay focuses on Bruno Schulz’s drawing, Three Figures 1935 (cardboard, pencil, black watercolor, 31.5 × 32 cm), preserved in the collection of the Art Museum at the Ein Harod kibbutz in Israel. For many years, Schulz specialists have not taken it into consideration. The drawing is a first-rate finished composition, signed and dated by the artist. The conversation of three characters may be an illustration to the short story “Spring” [Wiosna], showing Photographer, Father, and Joseph, or perhaps some unknown Schulz’s acquaintances. The drawing was donated to the museum at Ein Harod by the lawyer, Dr. Michał Chajes, in 1957. Thanks to Marla Raucher-Osborn’s help, some facts from Chajes’s biography have been established. Born in Drogobych, he was Schulz’s friend since their youth. He survived the Holocaust and after the Second World War lived in Cracow, collecting works of Jewish artists, some of which are now in the holdings of the Jewish Historical Institute in Warsaw. The drawing in question should be added to the catalogue raisonneé of Schulz’s works, while the activity of Chajes as a collector deserves further investigation.
