A modern illustrated Haggadah by noted Israeli artist and sculptor Yaacov Agam (b. 1928). The traditional text recounting the Exodus from Egypt is here adorned with distinctly modern and brilliantly-colored designs. The geometric illustrations and unique typography used for this beloved Jewish text continue the tradition of Haggadah illustration with an aesthetic unique to the artist.
