Gathering of Four Women

This appears to be a framed art piece, very likely a print or possibly an original watercolor, given the medium's typical appearance for Itzchak Tarkay. The artwork depicts four stylized women gathered around a round table, seemingly engaged in a social setting. The dominant colors are soft pastels and muted tones, including mauves, peach, brown, purples, and blues, with vibrant accents such as the red shoes and the yellow flowers in a teal vase. The figures are rendered with thick outlines, characteristic of Tarkay's expressive style, and exhibit flat areas of color washes. The women are adorned in patterned dresses, with one on the left in red polka dots, another in a brown solid, a third in a pink geometric pattern, and the fourth in striking purple and white stripes. A signature, discernible as 'Tarkay,' is present in the lower right corner, confirming the artist as Itzchak Tarkay. The piece is set within a multi-layered matting system, featuring a narrow dark inner mat and a wider light green outer mat, which provides a pleasing contrast to the artwork's palette. This is then housed in a dark brown, possibly wood, frame with a simple profile. The overall condition appears good, with no visible damage to the artwork itself, although minor dust collection or superficial scratches might be present on the frame or glass due to age and handling. The style is distinctly Post-Impressionistic with a blend of figurative and decorative elements, typical of Tarkay's work from the late 20th or early 21st century. The quality of the framing suggests a professional presentation. The craftsmanship in the print reproduction (if it is a print) is of high quality, retaining the nuances of the original watercolor medium.
