MANE-KATZ RABBIS, c. 1935 Oil on canvas 18 H. x 14 W. 1/2 in. (45.5 x 35.8 cm.) Signed PROVENANCE Dominion Gallery, Montreal Christies, New York, November 04, 1982. Lot 177: $11,000 Private Collection, New Jersey, 1982-2021 Estate of the above, 2021. Raised in an orthodox Jewish family in Russia, Mane-Katz was born in the Ukraine and became an early 20th-century artist, known especially for portraits and paintings with Jewish themes. From childhood, he had been influenced by stories of Jewish mysticism, which was reflected in his paintings. He had a peripatetic life between Russia, France, Israel, and America. He first studied art in Kiev at the Beaux Arts Academy, and in 1913, went to Paris where he associated with Chaim Soutine and Marc Chagall and continued his art studies there at the Beaux Arts Academy. During World War I, he tried to join the Foreign Legion but was rejected because he was too short. He went back in Russia again, this time joining the Soviet Revolution but rejected the cause because he was so horrified by Josef Stalin. He worked briefly for the Russian ballets, and in 1921, he returned to Paris where in 1927 he took French citizenship. For the next twelve years, he traveled widely, showing his art work and doing many paintings. In 1939, as World War II was breaking out, he was drafted by the French and then was taken prisoner by the Germans. He escaped and went to the United States and remained there until 1945, exhibiting his paintings at Katia Granoff Gallery and Wildenstein Gallery. After the war, he returned to Paris where he had exhibited in the Salons. In Paris to the end of his career, he worked happily, painting hundreds of portraits of rabbis...

Colorful Mediterranean Beach Promenade with Café Terraces and Figures Artist: Elisabeth Ollé Curiel Title: La Playa Medium: Oil on canvas Dimensions: 60 × 73 cm / 23.62 × 28.74 in Framed dimensions: 78 × 91 cm / 30.71 × 35.83 in Signature: Signed “Ollé Curiel” lower right Inscription: Titled “La Playa” on the reverse Origin: Spain Style: Fauvist, Expressionist, Mediterranean Modern Period: Late 20th century Condition: Good original condition, with minor signs of age and wear consistent with its history Frame: Presented in its original wooden frame DESCRIPTION A vibrant Mediterranean beach scene by Spanish painter Elisabeth Ollé Curiel, depicting a lively seaside promenade filled with café terraces, striped awnings, strolling figures and sunlit architecture overlooking the deep blue sea. Ollé Curiel constructs the composition through broad, spontaneous brushstrokes and an exuberant palette of turquoise, cobalt blue, emerald green, yellow, red and ochre. The figures and architectural elements are deliberately simplified, creating a rhythmic and highly expressive vision of everyday coastal life. The large green-and-white café canopy anchors the foreground, while the promenade leads the eye toward the sea and the bright horizon. Rather than offering a literal representation, the artist transforms the beach into a celebration of color, movement and Mediterranean light. The painting is signed in the lower-right corner and titled “La Playa” on the reverse. Its generous format and vivid chromatic presence make it an excellent statement piece for a contemporary, modernist or Mediterranean-inspired interior. ARTIST BIOGRAPHY Elisabeth Ollé Curiel is a Spanish painter and sculptor born in Barcelona in 1960. Her artistic identity is shaped by both her Catalan background and her family connections with Venezuela and the Caribbean. Her work explores memory, cultural identity, travel and the meeting of different landscapes and traditions. Mediterranean villages, Caribbean settings, urban scenes, music and the human figure frequently appear in her paintings. Ollé Curiel’s pictorial language combines expressive color, simplified forms and gestural brushwork. Her work reveals affinities with Fauvism, Expressionism and lyrical abstraction while maintaining a distinctive and highly personal character. Her paintings have been exhibited internationally and are appreciated for their vitality, emotional immediacy and fusion of European and Caribbean visual influences. PICTORIAL INSPIRATION The painting reflects the legacy of Henri Matisse, Raoul Dufy and the Fauvist tradition, particularly in its liberated use of color, flattened perspective and joyful interpretation of Mediterranean life. Its energetic brushwork and spontaneous figures also evoke European Expressionism, while the luminous palette and bustling café atmosphere recall the modern coastal scenes painted throughout the French and Spanish Mediterranean during the 20th century.
