Itzchak Tarkay Serigraph, 'Afternoon Reflections'

This item is an original limited-edition serigraph by the renowned Israeli artist Itzchak Tarkay (1935–2012). The artwork features Tarkay's signature Neo-Impressionist and Fauvist-influenced style, depicting a stylish, contemplative woman seated at a cafe table. The piece is characterized by bold, saturated colors and fluid, expressive lines. The subject is shown wearing a large, ornate hat adorned with yellow flowers, a dark blue dress, and a vibrant blue necklace, set against a background of patterned drapery and a multi-colored checkered floor. To the left, a table with a yellow cloth holds a teapot and a vase of lush, colorful foliage. The print appears to be pencil-signed by the artist in the lower right margin and numbered in the lower left, indicating it is part of a specific edition run (likely 1/350 or similar based on visual standard). The artwork is professionally matted with a dark navy or black primary mat and a reddish-brown inner accent mat, all housed within a wide, black textured frame with beaded edge detailing. The overall condition appears excellent, with vibrant color retention and no visible signs of foxing, moisture damage, or paper waviness. The style is late 20th-century contemporary art, likely produced between the late 1980s and early 2000s. The craftsmanship is high, indicative of a quality silk-screen process with distinct layered ink textures.
