Tonight is the last night of the Jewish Festival of Lights, Chanukah. So today I have one last Chanukah image for you. This is an illustration of a variety of hanukiahs [the nine-branched menorahs used at Chanukah], originally published in the early 1900s in the Jewish Encyclopedia. I found this illustration on Wikipedia Commons. Click on it to see it/download it full-sized.

Various Hanukiah, from the Jewish Encyclopedia, c. 1901-1906. (From Wikipedia Commons.)
