Summary:"Modernized illustrations based upon 16th-century mingahim books (books of Jewish customs), with an introduction, and descriptions of each image"--Verlagsangabe
Item Description:The Skirball Museum is delighted to display archival prints of the twenty-six collages represented in this volume in our recently renovated exhibition gallery, where state-of-the-art lighting will enable our patrons to enjoy these imaginative and inventive interpretations of the 16th century woodcuts. We are fortunate to be able to include in the exhibition examples of a number of editions of the Sefer Minhagim from the Klau Library on the Cincinnati campus of Hebrew Union College Jewish Institute of Religion, including the 1593 Venice edition that was the inspiration for A Collage of Customs
