About the Item
Eli Jacobi: 1898-1984. Very important artist who was born in Kharkov Ukraine. His art studies began at the Bezalel Art Institute in Palestine. He was imprisoned and tortured by the Turks and finally was able to emigrate to the U.S. in 1917. He studied at Art Students League, National Academy of Design and the Grand Central School of Art. He did a large number of Prints for the WPA during the Great Depression. I believe this extremely rare colored woodcut was done in 1940. I could not find an example that has ever been offered at auction. In fact the only other example I could find is in the permanent collection of the Met. Edition was only 33. The measurement of sheet is listed on Met website as 18 1/4 inches wide by 14 high. the image or block is 14 1/2 inches wide by 10 3/4 high. The frame measures 24 by 20. His prints have been exhibited or are held in the permanent collections of MOMA, The Met and the Art Institute of Chicago. Sorry about flash but glass is very reflective. I believe this is most likely the old Central Park zoo which did how’s lions in the late 19th and early 20th century., It is your also a self reflective piece based on his time as a prisoner in Palestine.
