[I have set the Lord always before me - a Shiviti devotional plaque]. Decorative Hebrew Shiviti devotional plaque, headed "I have set the Lord always before me", centred on the divine name and arranged for contemplation in prayer or domestic display. The design combines bold Hebrew calligraphy, menorah-form devotional texts, protective biblical verses, grape and floral ornament, and small vignettes of holy places. The lower imprint identifies the work as by Haim Mahboub, Jerusalem, printed by Lifshitz, placing it within the lively Mandate-period Jerusalem tradition of popular Jewish devotional lithography, probably c.1930s. Such sheets bridged folk piety, synagogue art and souvenir production for Jewish homes and pilgrims. Minor edge wear and handling creases are consistent with use. The typography is especially strong, enhancing its decorative market appeal today. This item has been translated and catalogued by ChatGPT Pro. . Haim Mahboub / Mahbub, Jerusalem.
