Re-posted for those of you not on facebook:
Silent Auction time folks - Here were have for
sale a large foil-embossed print of a page from the Darmstadt Haggadah,
a 15th century jewish illuminated manuscript detailing the story of
Exodus and containing the liturgy for Pesach. My Hebrew
is lousy, so I’m afraid I can’t tell you exactly what is written here,
however the piece is particularly beautiful, and the figure lighting the
menorah is certainly intriguing. I’ve had a look online and can’t find
any photos of this exact page, so unfortunately I can’t tell you any
more than that – though if anyone knows more about this particular image
it would certainly be interesting to find out.
Comes in a wooden
frame with gold border, thick brown mount with smaller gold inner mount
(check out the photos for a better description)
This is up for
silent auction if anyone is interested – starting price is £6.00 (to
cover shipping) If you are interested, just message me via The Occult Consultancy page or theoccultconsultancy@yahoo.co.uk, giving your bid. Bids will be accepted until midnight tomorrow (9/11/13)
