The custom of decorating Ketubot is not new. For centuries, Jewish artists have decorated Ketubot with ornaments and illustrations, as part of the art of Jewish manuscript ornamentation. The earliest decorated Ketubah we know of is over 700 years old — a Ketubah from the year 5151 (1391), written and illustrated in Austria, depicting the groom placing a ring on his bride, whose head is adorned with a crown. Most surviving decorated Ketubot are in museums and private collections from the 17th century onward. In most communities, geometric ornaments of plants and flowers were common. But in 17th–18th century Italy, a rich art of decoration with symbols and illustrations developed, which spread to Sephardic communities in other countries. Ketubot decorated in Italian style feature symbols of the twelve zodiac signs and twelve tribes, symbolic figures representing the seasons and virtues, winged angels, and even the figure of Venus — alongside drawings of Jerusalem and depictions of biblical events. Today as well, artists in Israel and the diaspora offer decorated Ketubot in various styles.
