Unlike the earlier Bombay Hagadah (1846), whose “illustrations were still closely linked to their Amsterdam prototypes, those in the Poona Hagadah have managed to drift into a sphere of their own. Even as they retain the basic pattern, they are now palpably Indian in tone and detail” (Yerushalmi, 107).
