Join Simona Di Nepi for a special Hanukkah talk shining a spotlight on one of the most exciting new Judaica acquisitions at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston: a dazzling silver Hanukkah lamp from the 1760s, made in Breslau by German silversmith Johann Ernst Braungart and featuring a fabulously dressed Judith and her servant in pride of place. Why does Judith appear on Hanukkah lamps at all? What can this surprising image—and its comparison with other Hanukkiot from the same era—reveal about the maker, the city, and the cultural world in which it was created? Through close looking and lively comparison with related works in public and private collections, Simona will unpack the stories, questions, and historical layers embedded in this remarkable Hanukkah menorah, showing how a single object can illuminate an entire moment in Jewish art and memory.
