Skies of Parchment, Seas of Ink offers the first full survey of Jewish illuminated manuscripts, ranging from their origins in the Middle Ages to the present day. Featuring some of the most beautiful examples of Jewish art of all time--including hand-illustrated versions of the Bible, the Haggadah, the prayer book, marriage documents, and other beloved Jewish texts--the book introduces readers to the history of these manuscripts and their interpretation. Marc Michael Epstein with contributions from leading experts, this sumptuous volume shows how Jewish aesthetic tastes and iconography overlapped and diverged with those of Christianity, Islam, and other traditions.
