    CW: Babies thrown in the Nile, haggadah illustration

    The Prague Haggadah's pictures influenced other haggadot. Here is the Venice Haggadah from 1609. Forced labor and beatings in the first picture, whereas in the second we have babies being thrown in the Nile while parents cry out, and a couple that refrained from relations, which is a story found in the Talmud, Sotah 12a, involving Moshe's parents and Miriam. #haggadot #Mazeldon

    Next up is a painting of the Romaniote Haggadah, manuscript of 1583. The Romaniote Jews are Jews from Romania, that made their way to Greece - in this case apparently the island of Crete. This is a depiction of Jews being enslaved and making bricks. I love the colors in this one! #haggadot #Mazeldon

    CW: Disturbing concept of Egyptians in a 1526 Haggadah (Passover blessings book)

    Also note the depiction of the soldier on the left hand side, whose face is not human, really. This picture has not been "absorbed" by later haggadot. This one, of Egyptians throwing babies in the Nile, did appear at least in concept in other #haggadot. #mazeldon

    CW: Disturbing concept of Egyptians in a 1526 Haggadah (Passover blessings book)

    This year I was taken with the depictions of Egyptians in #haggadot. First up, the one that began it all, the Prague Haggadah, printed in 1526 by brothers Gershom and Grunim Katz. Its woodcuts are beautiful. This one is so shocking that an owner wrote "woe to the wicked", twice, on its margins - and it was what piqued my interest. We see a royal figure bathing in Jewish babies blood, while babies complain. #mazeldon
