Large Broadside for the Synagogue, Handwritten and Hand-Decorated – Hotzaat Sefer Torah – Germany or Austria, 1886
"Seder Hotzaot Sefer Torah L'Shabbat V'Yom Tov" (prayers recited upon removal of the Torah scroll from the Holy Ark on Shabbat and Festivals) – large broadside meant to be hung in a synagogue, handwritten and hand-decorated in color by Leibu Goldfarb. [Germany or Austria, 1886].
Border decorated with foliate and floral motifs, fowl and lions. Colored with watercolors and gold ink. The name of the artist, Leibu Goldfarb, and the year 1886 (in a chronogram) are written on bottom center.
A large heading on top, written in gold ink in Ashkenazic calligraphic script, reads "Seder Hotzaot Sefer Torah L'Shabbat V'Yom Tov". The broadside features prayers recited upon opening the Holy Ark to remove the Torah on Shabbat and festivals. A Yiddish prayer appears at bottom left corner. A short German prayer (in Gothic letters), beginning with the words: "O Gott, gib uns Sühnung an den heiligen Tagen...",  appears beneath the Hebrew text.
