The Book of Ruth - Handwritten and Hand-painted
Ruth, written and painted by Mordechai Laufer. [Eretz Israel, ca.1960s].
The Book of Ruth handwritten in fine letters on heavy Bristol paper, with original illustrations in black and white (gouache and water colors). The front cover is decorated with a copper-cutting painted in yellow, depicting Ruth carrying stalks of grain on her shoulders, with the caption "Ruth". Probably the manuscript for a book that was supposed to be published but never was. [28] pp, 36 cm. Fair-good condition, leaves slightly loose, minor moisture and other stains.
