ATTRIBUTED TO ITZCHAK ISAAC TARKAY OIL PAINTING

Attributed to Itzchak Isaac Tarkay, Israeli, Serbian, 1935 to 2012, oil painting on canvas depicting a portrait of a lady sitting in a cafe. Signed lower right. Framed. Itzchak Isaac Tarkay is known for Landscape and female figure painting. In 1951, Tarkay received a scholarship to the Bezalel Art Academy in Jerusalem, where he studied for a year before having to leave due to difficult financial circumstances at home. In order to continue his scholarship, he was allowed to study under the artist Schwartzman until his mobilization to the Israeli army. After returning to the familiar environment of Tel Aviv, Tarkay enrolled in the Avni Institute of Art, which he graduated in 1956. His teachers there were Mokady, Janko, Schtreichman and Sematsky. Tarkay has since exhibited extensively both in Israel and abroad, and his works can be found in many public and private collections. Tarkay focuses on the female figure by using simplicity of form and line, along with a rich palette not unlike Toulouse Lautrec, to create sensitive portraits of elusive ladies. One of a kind artwork.

Dimensions: Framed 47 x 36 1/4 in. All measurements are approximate.
