About the Item

Large Surrealist Abstract, Yellow, Original Oil Painting By French artist, Sophie Danielle Rubinstain 1922-2018 The painting is stamped with the artists atelier sale stamp verso Oil painting on canvas, unframed Canvas size: 36 x 29 inches Stunning original oil painting by the 20th century French surrealist painter, Sophie Rubinstain (1922-2018). This large oil painting is a fabulous representation of French abstract art. The soft colour palette is quite beautiful, showing what we believe to be a marine horizon - with yellow shapes creating a facial outline. 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". Condition report: The painting and canvas are both in a very pleasing condition, minor scuffs to the surface.
