This magnificent manuscript was created as a specialty commission by illustrator, heraldic painter, engraver and skilled scribe (Sofer Mahir) Victor Bouton. Born in Lorraine in 1819 and active in Paris, Bouton followed the model of Shiraz school of miniature paintings and manuscript decoration when creating this unique Haggadeh. The manuscript features sumptuously rich borders with floral elements, gold and lapis lazuli surrounding the text in Hebrew calligraphy.
The Haggadah is now in the Braginsky Collection (https://braginskycollection.com/portfolio/bouton-haggadah/)
We have reached the forth day of the week, which means that we are more than half way to the weekend :) and that you are doing very well checking out the days of the week in Hebrew (yes, I see you there, following the posts... :))
Revi'i is one of those words in Hebrew that has vowel sounds that do not exist in English. With two EE sounds one after the other, just follow my method helping English speakers pronounce Hebrew words perfectly, and you will too.
Have a great Revi'i and I will see you tomorrow with another day of the week.

Noah's Ark for just $49.95 Digital Reproduction *Unframed 12.6" x 15.0" 32.0 x 38.0 cm Noah’s Ark is perhaps the most well known story in the Bible. Now Ellen Miller Braun has taken this beloved tale and designed a whimsically colorful display of Noah, his Ark and the animals- for both young and old alike to adore. Enjoy the scene of the peace loving dove with the rainbow cascading color over the ark. Noah and his cast of creatures large and small soar, riding high on the water spout of two frolicking whales.In Ellen’s lively rendition, the Torah Portion, Noah, Genesis: 6-12, is repeated seven times. As we all know, the animals boarded the ark two by two; one male and one female of each “kind.” However, G-d commanded Noah to bring seven males and seven females each from the “clean” or “kosher” animals, Ellen’s seven repetitions of the portion represents these sets of seven "clean" animals saved from the flood. These repetitions also symbolize the seven Noahide laws that were established after the flood. This exquisite micro calligraphy creation is a delight for children and the child in each of us- keeping this story close to our hearts and the important message that comes with it.
