The Fire Came and Burnt the Stick

"Had Gadya," sung at the conclusion of the Passover seder, describes the purchase of a young goat, which is then eaten by a cat, which in turn is bitten by a dog. After a series of assailants, God destroys the final attacker, ending the vicious cycle. The song is an allegory for the persecution of the Jews, while demonstrating God's ultimate triumph over evil and death. The artist transforms "Had Gadya" into a metaphor for the triumph of the Bolshevik Revolution.
