This image bears some resemblance to the protagonist painted by Leopold Pilichowski’s “Sukkot” (1894-95), housed in the Jewish Museum, New York (JM 89-55). The subject of a tallith-clad Jew with the celebratory Four Species was also a subject for Marc Chagall: “Feast Day” (1914) (Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen, Düsseldorf, Germany).
