Antique Mid 19th Century Iranian Hand Painted Ketubah (Jewish Marriage Contract) Judaica.

 

According to a local Sarasota rabbi, this is a Persian Ketubah from the town of Isphahan, Iran, Dated 1869 with decorations of lions, the sun, a rosewater vase, birds, and flowers. This ketubah dictates the marital contract between Yeshua/Joshua Kechor Sheul and Anaran Leirit, with the contract script on bottom half of document in a mix of cursive and print Hebrew lettering. The ketubah is bordered by Hebrew print. Framed.

 

A ketubah is a traditional Jewish marriage contract that outlines the groom's responsibilities to the bride, historically ensuring her financial and legal rights in case of divorce or his death. It is a central part of the Jewish wedding ceremony, signed by witnesses and often the officiating rabbi. Traditionally written in Aramaic, modern ketubot may use contemporary language to reflect egalitarian or interfaith values. Often beautifully decorated, the ketubah serves both as a legal document and a symbolic artwork, typically displayed in the couple’s home as a reminder of their commitment.
