Decorated "Megillat Esther" on Parchment – Italy
Decorated "Megillat Esther". [Italy], [19th century, or earlier].
Ink and paint on parchment; wooden handle; leather case.
Decorated "Megillat Esther", written on four parchment sheets. The text is framed in red. In the margins of the parchment sheets and between columns are impressive drawings of flowers and strawberries in bold colors. The last sheet has thinner letters on slightly different parchment, but it seems to have been written and decorated at the same time that the other sheets were written and decorated.
Megillah: 25 cm. wooden handle: 44 cm. (with break), leather case: 36 cm. (non-original).
