Summary

Arthur Szyk originally intended his Passover story of persecution and deliverance (told through the traditional text of the Haggadah) to be a strong statement against the Nazis, but no publisher in his native Poland dared take on a project with strong anti-Nazi iconography. He ultimately found a publisher in England. Perhaps the most recognizable image from the book, this image shows an Eastern European Jewish family seated at the Seder table, the patriarch at the head.
