Barcelona Haggadah

Folio 71

Then wash the hands, since hand-washing … is obligatory; ‘Pour out … ‘ Fill the cup (with wine) for the third time. Recto, text only.

A winged angel emerges from the upper border to the left of this word, coloured almost entirely in orange despite a more detailed preparatory drawing still visible below, while holding an inverted gold goblet above three men standing to the left.
