Description

This 18 x 24"print by Harriet Finck memorializes the biblical Sarah’s famous words in Genesis:"And Sarah laughed within herself, saying, 'After I am finished, could there be pleasure for me? And my man is old'."

I am exploring the meaning behind a variety of Hebrew texts, learned long ago, with a particular, though sometimes hidden, emphasis on the letters themselves...."
