Yoko Tanaka
"Sharing, " Oil Paint on Wood Panel, 2007

2007

About the Item

Trained first as a photographer and then as an illustrator, Yoko Tanaka takes a look at life’s quieter moments in her paintings. She chooses a limited palette of soft, smoky tones that give her works a hushed, otherworldly quality. With an illustrator’s eye for graphic impact, her figures are simplified, residing in spare, sometimes fanciful, settings. In her oil on wood panel piece entitled “Sharing,” two cloaked figures exchange an orb-like fruit that abound in an enchanted orchard full of winged horses.

  • Moses Strikes the Water from the Rock. XVII cent. Dutch school.
    Located in Firenze, IT
    Moses Strikes Water from the Rock Dutch school, XVII century. Workshop of Jacob de Wet (Haarlem, 1610-1675). Technique: Oil on oak wood panel, composed of 3 horizontal panels. In this evocative work, Moses stands in a cave, gathering the Israelites. There was no water to drink or for their cattle. The people were discontented in the desert. But Moses and Aaron listened to the voice of God. With Aaron’s staff, Moses struck the rock, and water gushed forth abundantly, quenching their thirst. Jacob de Wet’s workshop specializes in subjects from the Old and New Testaments. The recognizable rectangular format, simple compositions, and clear narratives define his style. The interplay of light and shadow, reminiscent of Rembrandt, adds timeless allure. The characters’ costumes, with their large hats and turbans...
