Mantua Ketubah

The text adorning this ketubah decoration is from a poem written for a wedding in the ghetto of Mantua in the 17th century, and begins Whom should I honor? Surely these souls who enter into a union as man and wife... It is the work of an anonymous poet and, for that wedding, was set to music for an 8 voice choir by Salamone Rossi, the most important Jewish composer of that period.
