Esther's banquets, and Mordecai's triumph

Esther 5:517311 hand

Opened by a notation lookup, not by an editor. Iconclass 71Q7 glosses this subject as “Esther's banquets, and Mordecai's triumph (Esther 5:5 - 7:10)”, and this library reads the Douay-Rheims, where the passage stands at Esther 5:5. Iconclass states this subject as Esther 5:5-7:10, which crosses a chapter. The episode is held to Esther 5.

And the king said forthwith: Call ye Aman quickly, that he may obey Esther’s will. So…Esther 5:5

How this subject was made

The subject was opened by an Iconclass notation. The library's map reads 71Q7, whose own gloss is Esther's banquets, and Mordecai's triumph (Esther 5:5 - 7:10), as Esther 5:5; a picture reaches this page when the notation a cataloguer put on it resolves here, whether the cataloguer wrote the notation down or wrote a subject heading that carries one. The authority is iconclass.org/71Q7.
