Torah ark doors from the synagogue of Rabbi Moses Isserles (the Rema)

This pair of doors belonged to the Torah ark in the Kraków synagogue associated with the renowned 16th-century Jewish scholar Moses Isserles. They are decorated on the inside with images of two Tabernacle implements – the Menorah and the Shewbread Table – and biblical verses relating to them (Num 8:2, Exod 25:30). The Menorah's branches are inscribed with Psalm 67. Another inscription on the base of the lamp contains the verse "I await Your deliverance, O LORD" (Gen 49:18).
