Book Description: September 2011-December 2012Elul 5771-Tevet 5773The remarkable works of art reproduced here—including paintings by Max Weber, Marc Chagall, and Édouard Vuillard—communicate the aesthetic values and skill of their creators while revealing distinctive aspects of Jewish culture. Paintings, prints, textiles, and ceremonial objects all speak as powerfully about the Jewish experience in the world as they do about the unique power of art to both inform and inspire. Spanning 3 continents and 200 years, these works represent the enormous range of art in the unparalleled collection of The Jewish Museum in New York City. In addition to its 16 images (one for each month), the calendar includes major and minor Jewish holidays, days of the Jewish year, weekly Torah readings, candlelighting times for selected cities, and blessings to be said over the candles.Printed on FSC-certified paper with soy-based inks. 12 monthly grids and full-color artwork.
