Mixing up worlds from the fin de siecle at Marilyn Braiterman Rare Book, where fine arts Judaica are enmeshed in architecture and design. The elegant intelligence of this inventory reminds me that Jewish Studies and the German Jewish philosophical tradition have a rightful place under glass as antiquarian objects. You can find catalogues online.
