"The Lady in Red"
by Sophie Danielle Rubinstain (French 1922-2018)
oil painting on canvas, unframed
signed and dated 1963
canvas: 32 x 23.5 inches
provenance: the artists estate
Wonderfully decorative original oil painting by the 20th century French surrealist painter, Sophie Rubinstain (1922-2018). It has impeccable provenance, having come from the artists studio sale in France (it is stamped verso). Wonderfully characterful portrait of this lady in a blue jacket - will make any interior really stand out!
Sophie Danielle Rubinstain (1922-2018) was a French artist who led a fascinating life. We are delighted to offer several of her original paintings to you, over the coming weeks, all from the artists estate.
Rubinstain served in the French Resistance during the latter part of World War II (from 1943 to 1944), aged just 21 years old. Arrested with her sister Rosa on denunciation and deported to Auschwitz, they were released in May 1944 in Bergen Belsen after the death march and were able to return to Paris on June 5, 1945 (Jewish Combat Organization - Resistance / Rescue France 1940-1945 - Editions Autrement - Memories Collection p 107).
As an artist, Rubinstain was described as an "essentialist" in the National Directory of Fine Arts, though her work was most often exhibited in the Expressionism and Symbolism sections of the main French salons. From the 1950's onwards, she exhibited with the: Salon of French Artists, Salon of Realities News, Salon des Independants, Exhibition of Free Art, Member of the Union of Women painters and Sculptors..... as well as the following galleries.... Galerie Renoir and Galerie Nouvelle Europe Brussels 1958, Galerie Silvagni Paris Quai Voltaire 1952 and several times at the Galerie Bernheim Jeune.
Her work was the subject of many articles in The Artistic News - The Journal of the Amateur Art - The Artistic and Literary Awakening .... as well as in the Daily Mail in 1952...."A strong perception, dynamically expressed with colors with attractive contrasts. This is the essentialism developed by this artist. Authentic art, translating symbolically, with a rare chromatic intensity, the human dramas, the spiritual elevation. Quality and depth invite to meditation".

The painting is in overall good condition. The canvas is slightly loose to the stretcher.
