Summary/Abstract: The authoress studies the Torah shields of Moravian provenance that are part of the State Jewish Museum collection. Her preceding article on Torah shields of Czech provenance appeared in Judaica Bohemiae, vol. XIX/1983, No. 1. First she pays attention to the shields that bear Viennese marks, then those made in Brno workshops and, finally, shields made by East- and West-Moravian masters.
