This miniature scroll of the biblical Book of Esther is opened to reveal several scenes from the story in which the Jewish Queen Esther saves her people in Persia from destruction at the hands of the court villain, Haman. Yitzchak Chazin, a professionally trained artist from Odessa, who immigrated to Israel, meticulously penned the Hebrew script. Oleg Trabish, also a Russian immigrant to Israel and a trained artist, painted the colorful illuminations that adorn the scroll.
