Marina Grigoryan
Old City Jerusalem Landscape Russian Israeli Judaica Oil Painting

About the Item

Genre: Realism Subject: Portrait Medium: Oil Surface: Canvas Country: Israel Dimensions: 31.5x23.5 Marina Grigoryan (Armenian/Russian/Israeli) was born in 1963 in Dushanbe, Russia. Grigoryan attended art school from 1974 to 1978 before enrolling at the Art Academy in 1978 to study easel painting under the guidance of Professor Nogmat Khakimov, and Lyubov Kuzina, senior lecturer in the Drawing and Composition Department. Upon her graduation in 1982, Grigoryan began her career as an artist by embarking on an ambitious ten year period of nearly non-stop participation in group and individual shows where she continued to honer her unique artistic talents. Her exposure to variety of experiences and people culminated in a desire to experience a complete “life makeover“, which she realized by immigrating to Israel in 1994. Grigoriyan’s paintings practically glow with an infusion of light and an amazing use of color that blend together to create an ambiance of almost fairy-like magic. "Soothing“, "exciting“, "mysterious“, "vibrant“, and "alive“ are just some of the words that have been used to describe the artist’s work. Today, Grigoryan has added sculpture and ceramics to her reproitare and continues to perform as a professional artist and has seen her work exhibited in Israel, America and Europe.

  • Vintage Illustration Judaica Painting, The Rabbi's (Men at Prayers)
    By Samuel George Cahan
    Located in Surfside, FL
    Genre: Judaica Subject: Religious Medium: Oil Surface: Canvas Country: United States Dimensions: 24" x 18" x 3/4" Dimensions w/Frame: 29" x 23" Cahan uses vibrant oil paint to draw a portrait of four elderly Jewish men wearing prayer shawls also known as tallits. The man in the foreground is staring pensively into the distance while the other figures in the background read or pray. Each character shares the same scholarly air in their serious expressions and mannerisms. Cahan’s gestural use of color and brush strokes soften the painting’s protagonists, thereby shedding a more sensitive light on the painting. The well-known twentieth century American illustrator, etcher, and painter Samuel George Cahan was born in Kovno, Russia, now part of Lithuania. His parents were both born in Russia during the early 1870’s. Two years after his birth, his family emigrated to America and eventually settled in New York City's Lower East Side. Cahan said that his interest for drawing started when he was only an infant. In a 1967 interview, the artist describes his primary school years as vastly disinteresting. While other students heeded their teachers or studied math, Cahan drew. At 12-years-old, Cahan exhibited his early talent for drawing on Fulton Street’s sidewalk. Barefoot and armed with chalk, he crouched outside a restaurant and drew the sinking of Maine. At the time, it was recognizable ship that was smashed by the British. One of the men who passed by his vibrant rendering of the wreckage was the Chief Editor of the New York World newspaper, Nelson Hersh. Upon seeing the young boy’s skill, Hersh offered him a job in the newspaper’s art...
