"Baby Moses" (1935) by Arthur Szyk

Best known for his World War II anti-Nazi political art and his beloved Passover Haggadah, 20th century artist Arthur Szyk (pronounced “shik”) single-handedly revived the medieval tradition of illumination. The Szyk Haggadah above features "Baby Moses" a visual-telling of the story where Pharaoh's daughter finds the baby floating in a basket in the river. The full collection of originals are currently on display at the Contemporary Jewish Museum in San Francisco.
