SHIVITI - FOLK ART] 
Manuscript on paper, text in colored inks and watercolor illustrations.
France, dated 1958.
90 x 59 cm
This Shiviti, which appears to be a popular work, uses classical motifs: the zodiac, peacocks, the menorah, flowers, the Tables of the Law and many other symbols. The Shiviti is a graphic variation featuring the name of God, a psalm and cabalistic texts. In this case, some of these texts are presented in the form of calligrams and depict a menorah. The Shiviti is often placed in front of the officiating minister in a synagogue, reminding him that he stands before God and calling him to concentration.
