EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a reproduction of "The Creation" from the Sarajevo Haggadah, created by the Spanish School in the 14th century. The original manuscript, dating back to around 1350, is considered one of the oldest Sephardic Haggadahs in existence and holds great historical significance. Used during Passover seders, this illuminated manuscript depicts scenes from Genesis and beautifully illustrates the biblical narrative of creation over seven days. The celestial heavens are depicted with intricate detail, showcasing heavenly bodies such as the moon and sun amidst a firmament that separates them from Earth. As an important artifact of Jewish religion and culture, this reproduction offers viewers a glimpse into medieval religious practices and beliefs. Its vibrant colors and meticulous illustrations transport us back in time to when manuscripts were painstakingly crafted by hand. Currently held at the National Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina, this photograph captures not only the artistic beauty but also serves as a reminder of our shared human history. It represents centuries-old traditions passed down through generations within Judaism. With its rich symbolism and historical context, this image invites contemplation on themes such as faith, creationism, and our place within the universe. A true testament to human creativity and devotion to religious expression throughout history.
