The picture is from the All-Russian Congress of the Estonian Military in Tallinn, July 1917.

The writing "Ühinege wennad" means in Estonian "Brothers unite". But what says the writing under the "Ühinege wennad." I guess its Hebrew... or not?

OK now I get it. The black isn't letters but flag colour.
Well thanks for solving the "mystery."
