About the Item
Beautifully painted in muted tones of honey, soft blue and dusty pink, this evocative painting from the 1930s depicts two nude and semi-nude female figures along the seashore, framing a pair of men in swimsuits clambering over rocks in the distance. The painter was David Karfunkle, who was born in Austria, moved to America, and became known for his idyllic and allegorical paintings of gods and goddesses in pastoral settings. This very modern scene, complete with a sailboat on the sea, is unusual in his oeuvre. The painting is oil on canvas stretched over board. The frame may be original. (Dimensions include frame; painting itself is 27 inches high by 19.5 inches wide.)
