About the Item
Shalom Moskovitz lithograph New York Print, signed, 50/100
Offered for sale is an original lithograph by Israeli artist Shalom Moskovitz (1896-1980) known as Shalom of Safed titled "New York", signed and numbered 50/100 and dated 1960. The litho is signed and titled on the bottom right in Hebrew and is additionally pencil is signed on the bottom right. The print is in excellent condition. Art measures 34.5" x 19".
Known as Shalom of Safed, the artist has envisioned the city that never sleeps in his unique Judean twist. The print is titled on the bottom left at the base of Brooklyn Bridge and pencil numbered in the middle bottom.
The piece is wired, framed in a metal under glass, and ready to hang. Shalom Moskovitz (1896-1980) known as Shalom of Safed began to paint relatively late, at the age of 55. For more than half a century he worked at various crafts, mainly watch-making, but also as a stonemason and silversmith, and led a quite and religious life. He came across painting accidentally and started to paint subjects closest to his heart, the events of Jewish history, as narrated in the Old Testament and elaborated in the Talmud and other books. Shalom considered himself a “historical writer” rather than an artist, retelling the stories from Genesis and Exodus. He inserted scriptural verses and other legends to ensure clarity. His works often “read” like Hebrew with movement and sequence running from right to left, from top to bottom. Shalom had claimed that he did not work from his imagination, yet there is humor as well as imagination in his vivid colors and rearrangement of elements of his Bible stories.
Although “primitive” in the sense of being untaught, Shalom paints neither as a recluse nor a total naïve. It is the indirect and intimate awareness of his heritage that enabled him to transcend conventional barriers and forms.
Shalom of Safed had many exhibitions around the world, among them at the Jewish Museum (New York), the Renaissance Society (Chicago), the Israel Museum (Jerusalem), and the Stedelijk Museum (Amsterdam).
