Item Information
Estimated Value Priceless
Item Number 103
Item Description
Framed artist proof 13/25 lithograph "Cafe Scene." At the age of 9, Itzchak Tarkay and his family were sent to the Mathausen Concentration Camp, until Allied liberation freed them a year later. In 1949 his family immigrated to Israel. Tarkay studied at the Bezalel Art Academy and the Avni Institute of Art. He has achieved recognition as a leading representative of a new generation of figurative artists. The inspiration for his work clearly lies with French Impressionism, and Post-Impressionism, particularly the color sophistication of Matisse and the drawing style of Toulouse-Lautrec.
