A stimulating, limited-edition serigraph from esteemed Israeli artist ITZCHAK TARKAY (1935-2012), inspired by his early-aughts oil painting, Seated Woman with a Basket of Fruit. The figure of a young female is set against a Post-Impressionist backdrop of vibrant color and geometric pattern, the fluid lines and rich palette pointing to the influence of Matisse and Toulouse-Lautrec. While often celebrated for expressive use of color and his mastery of moods, Tarkay’s primary focus was compositional clarity. He took to heart Picasso’s principle that “every painting should rhyme”; witness the harmony of forms in this piece and how the shade of each ripe fruit is echoed in the sitter’s costume. Signed and numbered in plate: 192/450.


ITZCHAK TARKAY was an influential Israeli artist primarily known for his watercolor and acrylic portraits of sophisticated-looking women in modish clothing. He was born in 1935 in Subotica, Serbia, about 10 km below the Hungarian border, in what was then Yugoslavia. When he was nine years old, his family—after being liberated from a WWII Nazi concentration camp in Mauthausen, Austria—resettled in Israel. Tarkay went on to study at the Bezalel Academy of Art and Design in Jerusalem and later at the Avni Institute of Art and Design in Tel Aviv.

An accomplished painter, serigrapher, and watercolorist, Tarkay mentored younger Israeli artists throughout his career—including Mark Kanovich (b. 1970), Yuval Wolfson (b. 1966), and David Najar (b. 1962), all of whom worked with him in his studio. He was a great friend of Yaacov Agam (b. 1928), the master Israeli sculptor and experimental artist, widely celebrated for his contributions to optical and kinetic art. They collaborated on two original paintings.

Tarkay died unexpectedly in 2012 in Detroit, Mich., following emergency heart surgery.

Deceptive Listing but Good Product
Size: 8.4 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This is not the German version as it have Petrolatum. Based on ingredients it is the Mexican/American version. That being said, it's great and I enjoy how moisturizing it is as a body cream (though it causes acne if I use it on my face) and will purchase again (though not from this listing as it is more expensive than the regular listings for the same item).

Nivea
Size: 8.4 Ounce (Pack of 1)
NIVEA is a classic for a reason! This cream is super moisturizing and perfect for dry or rough skin. It feels rich and nourishing without irritating my skin. I love using it at night, and I wake up with my skin feeling soft and smooth. It’s affordable, effective, and a must-have in my skincare routine. I highly recommend it!

Tretinoin Users- THIS is for YOU!
Size: 8.4 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I used this when I was younger on very chapped hands. I'm happy to have rediscovered this product for my face as an adult! For anyone using tretinoin, this is THE moisturizer for YOU!!!!! Not too much of a scent, thick product that absorbs well, and it's the best for the bathroom counter.
