Sarevejo Haggadah
I found pictures of the original Sarvejo Haggadah. It is significant because Jews in Medieval Europe were not allowed to create man's image. This is amazing. But i The pictures shown here is what you find in Medieval Europe in a Cathedral and in Christian books. I do wish that Geraldine Brooks would have inserted pictures in her books for readers to see.

thanks for posting these! they're gorgeous.
There is so much info out there if you do a search I couldn't believe it I found a blog with the person who discovered the Haggadah in Bosnis in the 90's. I can't explain this but it makes history come alive.
These pictures certainly would have been an enhancement to the book. Thanks for the link1!
