== His Picture == The Rebbe Rashab was particular about not being photographed. The only time he agreed was in 5680 (1920), near his passing, when there were plans for the Rebbe and family to travel from Rostov. For passport purposes he was photographed, which is the known picture of him. [[File:ืฆืืืจ ืืจืฉ''ื.png|thumb|The painting of R' Nachum Yitzchak Kaplan, which was edited by the Rebbetzin Chaya Mushka]] The Rebbetzin Chaya Mushka noted the picture didn't capture his true appearance. Therefore R' Nachum Yitzchok Kaplan drew the Rebbe Rashab's likeness from memory wearing a shtreimel. After the Rebbetzin's corrections, she expressed satisfaction.

Discussion arose whether it was indeed the Rebbe Rashab or a relative.
