David Schluss Paintings

Israeli, American, b. 1943
David Schluss is a celebrated Israeli artist known for his expressive, rhythm-filled compositions that blend figurative abstraction, symbolism, and a vivid, almost musical use of color. Born in 1943 in Israel, Schluss began his artistic journey at a young age and later pursued formal training in fine arts in Canada, where he refined his distinctive visual language. Schluss’s work is characterized by flowing, elongated figures that often appear to float or dance through space, capturing moments of intimacy, celebration, and spiritual reflection. His subjects—often musicians, lovers, and mythic characters—are rendered in richly textured surfaces, using techniques that involve layering paint and applying it with his fingers and palette knives to create a tactile, sculptural quality on canvas. A master of serigraphy (silkscreen printing), Schluss has produced numerous limited-edition prints, many of which are hand-signed and embellished, and often include special editions such as Hors de Commerce (HC) prints. His work has been exhibited extensively in galleries throughout North America, Europe, and the Middle East, and is held in private collections around the world. Through his art, Schluss conveys a sense of universal human connection, often evoking themes of love, harmony, and movement. His style is frequently compared to Marc Chagall for its lyrical and dreamlike qualities, yet remains wholly original in its emotional intensity and visual rhythm.

Oil on Canvas Painting Portrait of the Italian Noble Family of Zanardi Count

Oil on Canvas Painting Portrait of the Italian Noble Family of Zanardi Count

By Lucia Casalini Torelli

Located in Firenze, IT

This museum quality old master oil on canvas formal portrait painting depicting the family of the Count Zanardi is signed by the artist- the female painter Lucia Casalini Torelli- and published in a book dedicated to Casalini Torelli’s workshop and academy. This palatial masterpiece artwork comes directly from the ancient Villa Maraini Guerrieri - Palidano di Gonzaga (Mantua), an historic Italian heritage building owned by the descendants of the family portrayed for more than two centuries, until 1998. The big scale of this oil on canvas masterpiece painting states the relevance of Lucia Casalini Torelli as a painter. The present artwork is a formal family portrait painting that aim to introduce the characters depicted according to their social role in the society. The noble family is all gathered under a loggia overlooking a park, the landscape in the background is partially covered by a beautiful red cloth on the right side. The father stands up and holds the hand of his eldest son, proudly introducing his future heir. The son wears a light-blue dress and red boots, he is depicted in a serious pose holding a black tricorn hat under his arm and a rapier sword on his belt. The mother wears an elegant gold and dark green brocade dress, she is sitting with her youngest daughter on her knees while her second son is by her side. The little daughter wears a lovely long red and dress with white lace and holds an apple on her hand. The son stands next to his mother and is dressed in a brown priestly clothes. This palatial old masters piece was probably painted in 1740 due to the similarities with Cardinal Doria’ s portrait, now on display at the Doria Palace Museum, the official residence of the Prince of Genoa. The painting features original canvas (“prima tela”) and antique original patina, it is in excellent overall condition considering the age, use and its large scale. A formal detailed condition report and the results of the inspection with the UV lamp accompanied by photos is available on request. As well as for its exceptional quality and quite perfect state of conservation, this painting is particularly important and even more valuable both for the artist who painted it and for its absolutely exclusive provenance. Lucia painted the most prominent and powerful noble families of her time, the location of these paintings is unknown to the art market as it is extremely likely that the portraits are still kept in private collections. Furthermore, Lucia was one of the most appreciated artists of her time, so important that she was admitted as a member of the academy at a time when women were forbidden to attend these studies. In 1706, Felice Torelli...
