Protection for a Woman who Gave Birth to a Girl - Printed Amulet - Fürth, 18th Century
"For a girl" - leaf of protection from destructive forces and celestial sorcerers, for a woman who gave birth to a girl and for the newborn. [Fürth, ca. 1760s]. Ornamented border. At the top right, a figure bearing a sheaf of wheat and a sickle is depicted. The amulet contains various names, for adjuring demons and sorcerers to refrain from harming the baby girl. Printed in Germany, based on a similar protection leaf printed in Amsterdam, ca. 1740. The border ornaments and typeface of the letters bear strong resemblance to those of the Passover Haggadah printed in Fürth, 1762, by Itzik Buchbinder. A protection leaf "for a boy" was printed concurrently in Fürth, with oaths specific for the protection of newborn boys. [1] leaf. Approx. 21 cm. Good condition. Folding marks and stains.
