ILLUMINATED HEBREW HAGGADAH

Medieval Hebrew Haggadot (Passover prayer-books) from Sepharad and Ashkenaz are richly illuminated with biblical scenes, whimsical marginalia, and ornate initial word panels, all in the service of recounting the Exodus at Seder. A joyous Jewish heritage art, inclusive in its message of freedom and its intercultural artistic dialogue (borrowing Gothic and Islamic motifs), treasured globally as a symbol of Jewish resilience and creativity.
