About the Item
In "Untitled," a 20" x 20" oil on canvas, Roni Taharlev captures an intimate moment of introspection. The painting's muted palette, with soft earth tones against a subdued backdrop, reflects a quietude that is both poignant and serene. The subject's averted gaze and the slight tilt of her head evoke a sense of contemplation as if she's lost in thought or reminiscence. The neutral tones of her skin and the gentle brushwork lend a vulnerability to the figure, while the clouds in the background add a dreamlike quality to the composition. The overall effect is one of silent reverie, inviting the viewer to ponder the thoughts behind those introspective eyes. The piece resonates with the emotional depth and personal reflection characteristic of Taharlev's expressive style.
This piece is an oil painting executed directly onto canvas, which is then meticulously stapled to a sturdy wooden board for support and durability.

Roni Taharlev: Transcending the Boundaries of Figurative Art Early Life and Background
Roni Taharlev was born on June 16, 1964, in Kibbutz Yagur, Israel. She is the offspring of creative lineage—her father Yoram Taharlev was a renowned Israeli lyricist, and her mother Nurit Zarchi is a distinguished poet and author. This artistic environment would lay the groundwork for her venture into the world of fine art. Academic and Teaching Experience Taharlev serves as a faculty member at the Bezalel Academy of Art, where she teaches painting and drawing. Further extending her influence on the next generation of artists, she was a Visiting Artist at the Wissenschaftskolleg zu Berlin (Berlin Institute of Advanced Studies) from 2019 to 2020. Artistic Style and Themes Taharlev is predominantly a figurative painter, her work echoing classical European art but invigorated with a modern twist. She confronts complex issues of identity, gender roles, and societal norms. Her art explores objectification, the boundaries of gender binaries, and cultural aspirations toward determinism versus ambivalence and play. Exhibitions and Recognition Her artwork has been showcased in a multitude of solo and group exhibitions. Among her most recent is a solo exhibition at the Tel Aviv Museum of Art in 2023, titled "Not This Light, the Other Light." This retrospective will also include new works and will mark her achievement as the Haim Shiff Prize Winner. Her work has also been part of collections at prestigious institutions like the Israel Museum and the Tel Aviv Museum of Art. She has exhibited internationally, including venues like the Galeries Nationales du Grand Palais in Paris, the National Portrait Gallery in London, and the Brigham Young University Jerusalem Center. Her work has also been featured in a variety of catalogues, solidifying her reputation in the art community. Awards and Accolades Taharlev has garnered significant recognition, winning Israel's highest award for figurative art, the Haim Shiff Prize for Figurative-Realist Art, in 2022. She was also one of the winners of the Rappaport Prize at the Tel Aviv Museum of Art in 2021. Her artistry has also been acknowledged abroad, winning the BP Award at the National Portrait Gallery, London, in 2012, and an Artist Award during her work at the Wissenschaftskolleg in Berlin in 2019-2020. Legacy and Impact With her powerful artworks and extensive career in teaching and exhibitions, Roni Taharlev remains a beacon in the world of contemporary Israeli art. Her work will continue to challenge and engage audiences, shaping conversations about identity, society, and the potential of art itself.

The master brought together a few students there between June and September, rented one or two models for the season, which were painted from different angles, the artists (including Eckersberg himself) sitting side by side. Eckersberg used to paint a fairly small version, the pupils of the larger formats. The work fits more generally into the legendary context of the research and reforms carried out by Eckersberg concerning the studies of nudes and in particular of female nudes, to make this exercise a genre of painting in its own right. Following his two-year stint in Jacques-Louis David's studio in Paris in 1811, Eckersberg had been made aware of work on the nude and in particular on live models, in natural light, while in Denmark the drawings were then only made from casts of antique models or other mannequins. In 1822, when he had been a professor there since 1818, it was he who had the Royal Academy of Copenhagen authorize the study of nudes, no longer in the evening by candlelight, but in natural light; from 1833, it was still he who allowed students to work on nude female models, even if the official authorization of the Academy did not take place until 1839. It was this same year that he instituted his summer sessions, on a private basis, to orient his painting and that of his students towards a new conception of the representation of models: even if the nude remains the real theme, it does not however, this is more than just an academic exercise. The subject is placed in a contemporary interior, with a rather sophisticated decor, and occupied with an intimate activity (it is this type of intimate vein that we will find later in Degas or Cassatt for example); thus in our painting, the young woman is supposed to take off her clothes to wash. The objective is that the viewer forgets that the master and his students are painting a model during a posing session, and that he instead has the impression of being alone with the model, but invisible, almost like a voyeur in spite of himself. Moreover, in these paintings, the model never looks towards the spectator, inducing a psychological distance with him, whereas model and artist are actually physically very close. On the other hand, it is not a question of idealized nudes either, even if Eckersberg, proof of his debt to the antique, chooses fairly classic models and poses. The sensuality is real and very present, with dreamy, even innocent, and timeless expressions (the models do not seem to have a defined age), suave and slow attitudes and movements, and especially with clothes that hide or reveal skillfully parts of the female body: upper buttocks, pronounced hips... Made by an artist under 20, our sensual painting is probably one of the most beautiful and spectacular produced by the students of Eckersberg during these summer sessions. With a perfect balance between the firmness of an ancient statue (it recalls the Venus de Milo) and the softness of the feminine forms, highlighted by a harmonious palette, it captures the attention with many details: the almost photographic folds white clothing...Category
