Passover is a time to celebrate – each spring, the holiday commemorates the liberation of the Israelites from slavery in ancient Egypt. This year, on 30 March, Jews around the world will gather for Seder, a ceremonial meal rich with symbolic foods, and read the Haggadah, a special text that retells the story of the flight from Egypt. So while you wait for Elijah, break out the matzoh and dive into Sotheby’s archive to discover 8 objects to help celebrate this festive holiday.
