Artist's Description
This original Ketubah is based on a nineteenth century depiction of Jerusalem. The circle in the center has no visible beginning or end and represents the Kabbalistic concept of "Ayn Sof" - Infinity. It is surrounded by Jerusalem-style houses, palm trees and vases with flowers in a simplistic design. Painted in watercolor, the quiet warmth of country colors are reminiscent of the landscape of Eretz Yisrael. The traditional saying "He who finds a wife finds goodness" appears in Hebrew in each corner.
The text is in both Hebrew and English and is based on the traditional text.
The ketubah arrives by post in a cardboard tube. It is a giclee print of the original work which was painted and written by hand.
