Illuminated Passover Haggadah by Kafra. New York: Feldheim - Medieval-style gilded borders, Hebrew calligraphy - 1949

Early post-war deluxe Haggadah designed and illuminated by Kafra, published by Philipp Feldheim, New York, 1949 (Printed in U.S.A.). Conceived in the manner of a medieval Hebrew manuscript, the book features broad polychrome borders with subtle gilt, illuminated initials, miniature vignettes throughout, and elegant Hebrew calligraphy. Iconography includes the Exodus narrative, Ten Plagues, Temple/ritual scenes, and concluding songs, all framed by rich foliage and architectural ornaments reminiscent of 15th–16th-century Ashkenazic manuscripts.

Details: • Publisher & place: Feldheim Publisher, New York. • Year: 1949. • Language: Hebrew (English on title-page). • Format: Large quarto (approx.). • Dimensions: please add your exact measurements. Provenance/Notes: A finely produced mid-century illuminated Haggadah—sought after by collectors of Judaica, illuminated books, and Passover Haggadot. A striking display copy for the Seder table or as a meaningful gift.
