"Kishut Ivri" [Hebrew Ornament], a small collection of drawings by Shlomo Yedidya- Seelenfreund, collected by his friends and associates to mark twenty-five years of his Hebrew artistic work, 1899-1924.
The artist Shlomo Yedidya Seelenfreund (Hungary 1875 – Tel Aviv 1961) developed a unique style of Hebrew ornament – Ornamenting the square Hebrew letter.
The booklet before us was published to mark twenty-five years of Seelenfreund's artistic work and gathers dozens of pictures of his works of art – various examples of monograms, ornaments made of entwined letters, and more. At the beginning of the booklet, there are letters by some of his friends, including the poet Dr. Yosef Patai, the author and translator Mordechai Avi-Shaul (who was Seelenfreund's son-in-law) and others.
On the title page there is a handwritten Hebrew dedication, presumably by the author and translator Mordechai Avi-Shaul: "To our friend the artist H. Blum in Jerusalem, Avi=Shaul".
30 pp, 24.5 cm. Good condition. A few stains and creases. Tears and open tears to the margins. Stamps on the cover. Creases and small tears to the cover and spine.
