This Torah Ark, or Aron Kodesh, was commissioned by a client who recovered from cancer. She donated the piece as a gesture of thanks to the members of her community who supported her through her illness.
The ark serves in the famous North Shore Congregation Israel, in Glencoe, Illinois. The iconic synagogue designed by architect Minoru Yamasaki.
