Seder Arbah Ta’aniyos, Amsterdam 1658. A Beautiful Copy In Striking Original Binding!
A very early and rare prayer book for use on the four fast days throughout the year. Includes the relevant Selichos for Asarah B’Teves, Ta’anis Esther, 17th of Tammuz, as well as Kinnos for Tisha B’Av. Printed for the Sephardic community then residing in Amsterdam.
The title page boasts a beautiful architectural arch, with Immanuel Benveniste’s printing house emblem at the center, depicting a lion facing a tower with a star above. This emblem later became synonymous with many Jewish printers of Amsterdam who previously were employed by Benveniste.
Liturgy works from Amsterdam printed during this early period are exceptionally rare, especially with its original binding intact.
A beautiful copy, bound its original binding made of wood, with clasps. Spine partially restored.
115 pp., mispaginated. Approx. 15.5cm.
