Passover Haggadah – Venice, 1716 – Many Illustrations
Illustrated Passover Haggadah, in Hebrew and "Lashon Ashkenazim", with the Tzeli Esh commentary. Venice: Alvise Bragadin, [1716].
Each page of text enclosed in a fine decorative border. Many woodcut illustrations.
This Haggadah was simultaneously printed in three editions, one with a Judeo-Italian translation, one with Ladino translation, and the third (the present edition), described on the title page as being in "Hebrew and Lashon Ashkenazim". The latter edition comprises a Judeo-Italian (and not Yiddish) translation, though unlike the Judeo-Italian edition, the text of Birkat HaMazon here follows Ashkenazi rite.
[25] leaves. Lacking final leaf (replaced in photocopy). Approx. 32 cm. Fair condition. Stains. Wear. Many open tears (including large tears), affecting title page border, and text and illustrations on other leaves, repaired with paper. Photocopy replacements in many places (entire book professionally restored). New leather binding.
Yaari 82; Otzar HaHaggadot 132.
PLEASE NOTE: Item description was shortened in translation. For further information, please refer to Hebrew text.
