The Metz Haggadah

The Haggadah, published in 1767 in Metz, was the first release in a French-speaking region, which took over the images of the Amsterdam Haggadah. On the page to which the book lay open the representation of the “four sons” can be seen; they principally represent the four types of students: the wise, the wicked, the simple and the one who does not know how to ask. The four figures present in this Haggadah are taken from various pictures.
