The making of paper cuts by Jews in Eastern Europe, which differed in style from those made by Jews elsewhere, flourished particularly in the nineteenth century and began to fade as an art in the 1920s. These developments coincided in time and place with paper cuts created by rural Poles and Ukrainians. Researchers nevertheless insist on the distinctiveness of Jewish paper cuts because they were closely related to religious practices, and maintain that the influence of their neighbors, both in techniques and artistic motifs, was limited.
