Blood Libel looks at a story as old as history: the myth that Jews ritually sacrifice Christians—particularly children—to use their blood for Passover matzah and other religious purposes.

This artists book by designer and fine artist Lisa Rosowsky recounts seven of the most well-documented accusations of blood libel, dating from as far back as 39 AD and as recently as 1946. Selected excerpts from primary sources and reproductions of period art and photographs, combined with engaging summaries of each of the cases, weave a centuries-long narrative of suspicion, misunderstanding, and hate.

This limited edition book is hand-bound in Japanese linen and comes in a custom engraved acrylic slipcase.
