About the Item

Beautiful mid century figurative landscape of a contemplative woman in Cotswold village, England by David L. Ghilchik (b. 1892 Romania; d. 1972 London), c.1945. Signed lower right "Ghilchik." Presented in rustic wood frame. Image measures: 14.5"H x 17.5"W. With frame, measures: 21"H x 25"W x 2"D. David Louis Ghilchik was a painter, and cartoonist for Punch Magazine and the Daily Sketch. He was the son of Abraham Josef Ghilchik, who traded in lace and linen, and his wife Sali. The family settled in Salford in 1920, where David enrolled at the Manchester School of Art and studied under Adolphe Valette from 1907 to 1915. At the School he met fellow student Josephine Matley Duddle (1890–1981), marrying her in Chelsea in the last quarter of 1915. David continued his studies at the Slade School of Fine Art under Henry Tonks and Ambrose McEvoy. During World War I he served as a truck driver on the Italian front. He took part in the 1928 and 1932 Summer Olympics, competing for Great Britain in the mixed painting, drawing and watercolour categories. He also exhibited his oil paintings widely, notably at the Royal Academy, the New English Art Club and the Royal Society of Portrait Painters. His style is thought to have been influenced by Christopher Wood.
