ILLUMINATIONS is a project of Beth David B'nai Israel Beth Am

In 2012, Beth David commissioned Toronto artist Laya Crust to paint miniature paintings, or “illuminations,” to create a one-of-a-kind exquisitely illustrated Haftarah scroll. Laya and Beth David decided to share this unique collection with Jewish art lovers and educators worldwide. Together, they have published “ILLUMINATIONS, An Exploration of Haftarah through Art and History.” This book contains reproductions of all 82 Haftarah paintings, accompanied by commentary and explanatory text. In addition, they have printed individual, limited edition prints of each illumination.
