Color lithograph of a bar cafe scene with seated women, artist's proof, signed lower right. Itzchak Tarkay was an artist with a remarkable history, having been deported to a Nazi concentration camp in Austria in 1944. Fortunately, the Allied liberation of the camps in 1945 came in time for Tarkay to emerge alive, and in 1949 his family emigrated to Israel. In 1951, Tarkay’s formidable artistic skill earned him a scholarship to the Bezalel Art Academy in Jerusalem, but he was forced to leave the school after one year due to his family’s financial difficulties and his obligation to serve in the Israeli army. After his service, Tarkay moved to Tel Aviv and enrolled in the Avni Institute of Art, graduating in 1956. From that time, he gathered quite a following through his numerous exhibitions in Israel and abroad. The great appeal of Tarkay’s work has been described as possessing timeless, universal values. He painted for the sake of painting, not to make a political or social statement. Influenced by French Impressionism and Post-Impressionism, Tarkay’s artwork shows hints of the styles of Matisse and Toulouse-Lautrec. Overall size: 47 x 38 in. Sight size: 36 x 26 1/2 in.
