Summary

Description
English: Arthur Szyk originally intended his Passover story of persecution and deliverance (told through the traditional text of the Haggadah) to be a strong statement against the Nazis, but no publisher in his native Poland dared take on a project with strong anti-Nazi iconography. He ultimately found a publisher in England. This image of the Four Sons (that is, four Jewish archetypes--Wise, Wicked, Simple, and One Who Does Not Know to Ask) depicts the Wicked Son as an assimilated German complete with porkpie hat and Hitler mustache.
