The JTS Library houses one of the largest collections of rare Judaica in the world. This series will highlight some of these beautiful and unique works. This session focuses on a Venetian Ketubbah, a beautifully decorated document dated from 1749. Curator Sharon Lieberman-Mintz introduces the concept of a Jewish marriage contract and highlights the decorative and textual details from this ketubbah.
This is in conjunction with the JTS Library Exhibit, “To Build a New Home: Celebrating the Jewish Wedding” (May 18 – August 14, 2022).
