Over a two-year period, Israeli artist Avner Moriah created four different scrolls of the book of Esther. As the artist notes, “Each of my Scrolls of Esther is like a storyboard of a play, broken up into various segments that impart to the viewer a sense of drama, while relaying a visual interpretation of the written text.” In this limited edition scroll, images and colors reminiscent of medieval Persian art convey the historical background of the biblical story while creating rich layers of meaning drawn from traditional rabbinic interpretations of the text. The Hebrew was hand-lettered by Ukrainian-born calligrapher Avraham-Hersh Borshevsky, who received his artistic training in the Ukraine. He now lives in Israel where he is a professional Torah scribe and expert in Jewish scribal arts.
