Original watercolor on paper. Hand signed on front by Tarkay. Sheet size 12 x 9 inches. Frame size approx 18 x 15 inches.
Artwork is in excellent condition. Certificate of Authenticity included. All reasonable offers will be considered.
About the Artist: Itzchak Tarkay (Israeli, 1935–2012) was a painter known for his Post-Impressionist portraits done in watercolor and acrylic.

Born in 1935 in Subotica, Serbia, Tarkay and family settled in Israel after Allied forces freed them from a Nazi concentration camp during World War II. The artist went on to study at the Bezalel Academy of Art and Design in Jerusalem and later the Avni Institute of Art and Design in Tel Aviv. Later in life, Tarkay mentored younger Israeli artists, including Yaacov Agam and Yuval Wolfson...
