The Sabbath, The Jewish Sabbath (tradition-rest) is observed on the seventh day of the week - Saturday. According the biblical tradition, it commemorates the original seventh day on which God rested after completing the creation. The day offers a respite from the hectic pace of the week. Shabbat begins at sundown on Friday and ends with Havdalah - a short ceremony the separates the Shabbat from the rest of the week - on Saturday evening. The sketch on board was preparation for an oil painting that was not completed.

Sabbath Morning is rare to find and sought after by collectors of Emanuel Schary works of art.
