Israel is among a series of 9 studies featuring member countries of the United Nations. It was commissioned in 1945 by Canadian philatelist and entrepreneur Kasimir Bileski. Each print was created as frontispiece or title page for an international stamp album. While sixty images were commissioned by Bileski, Szyk completed only nine countries plus the series "The History of Flight," before his sudden death in 1951.
