The trumpet
“Walls and Trumpets” by Ofra Zimbalista, 2008
Maya House
Borough High Street, Southwark
London, May 2023
“These three figures, with their vivid shade of blue and their musical instruments, add a splash of colour and joy to the drab façade of Maya House and they brightened up my rainy autumn day. The best-known Biblical encounter between ‘Walls and Trumpets’ is, of course, at the Siege of Jericho, when the priests marched around the city walls for seven days, blowing their trumpets until the walls came tumbling down (see Joshua 6: 1-20). ” (Walls and Trumpets, Patrick Comerford)
