The Illustrated Sephardic Haggadah

The Illuminated Sephardic Haggadah is designed, painted, and hand written by Benjamin Hassan.

The designs are inspired by beautiful architectural and decorative details from select Synagogues in several countries worldwide. Each illumination is painted in watercolor, in warm, vibrant tones.

The Hebrew calligraphy is crisp and clean, laid out in a way that's clearly legible and easy to follow. Alongside each Hebrew page is its corresponding English translation, complete with lucid instructions written by R' Jonathan Cohen.

The Haggadah is printed as a Limited Edition of 613 copies, each signed and numbered by the Artist. The printing plates will be destroyed after the run, in order to ensure the value of each Haggadah.
