Itzhak Tarkay Signed Limited Edition Serigraph

This item is a limited edition color serigraph (silkscreen) by the renowned Israeli artist Itzhak Tarkay (1935–2012). The artwork depicts a classic Tarkay interior scene featuring a seated woman in a contemplative pose, surrounded by a vibrant still life and a view looking out toward a coastal balcony. The composition uses a bold, fauvist-inspired color palette dominated by saturated oranges, reds, and deep blues. The print is professionally housed in a thin gold-toned metal frame with a wide off-white matted border that includes a thin blue reveal or 'wash' line. The artwork appears to be hand-signed by the artist in the lower right margin and numbered in the lower left margin, indicating it is part of a limited print run. Physically, the piece exhibits the flat, layered ink texture characteristic of high-quality serigraphy. The condition appears stable with no visible foxing, water damage, or significant fading of the pigments, though minor reflections on the glass suggest an absence of non-reflective coating. The frame shows minor surface wear consistent with age, likely dating from the 1990s or early 2000s based on the style and framing materials. Tarkay's work is celebrated for its 'Tel Aviv School' influence, blending post-impressionist aesthetics with a modern, commercial appeal through elegant linework and bright, emotional color blocks.
