Ketubah - Argaman, Print
Creating this Ketubah I came closer than ever to being an apprentice at the Lisbon Judaic manuscript workshop of the 15th Century. It is a mission I carry: to revive this workshop's great tradition, which was so abruptly terminated with the expulsion of Spanish Jewry. In my designs, I combine the Old School with my own inspiration, tying the tradition with the art of our day.
Note the kite-shaped color areas in the red border, under the thin-line gold vines; the dark red ink-line floral areas above and under the text; the varying imaginary fruits and flowers on the entwining vines and the small calligraphy in the semicircles… All these have sources in our artistic tradition.
