Modernist Figurative Composition with Tulips (Manner of Itzchak Tarkay)

This artwork is a framed modernist print or painting featuring two figures and a vibrant arrangement of tulips. The composition is reminiscent of the School of Paris style, particularly the work of Itzchak Tarkay, characterized by stylized, mask-like faces with prominent rosy cheeks and elegant, elongated forms. The figure on the left is seated in a pensive pose, wearing deep crimson or burgundy garments, while the figure on the right leans inward, tending to dark-foliaged red tulips. The color palette is dominated by moody blues, deep reds, and shadowed greys, applied with broad, expressive brushwork that creates a textural, almost dreamlike atmosphere. The piece is housed behind glass in a multi-layered presentation: it features a wide sage-green or light-grey matte board and is enclosed in a gold-toned ornate frame with decorative bead and scroll molding. In terms of condition, the artwork appears well-preserved within its framing, though there are noticeable reflections on the glass surface and slight dust accumulation around the interior edges of the frame. The style suggests a late 20th-century origins, likely between 1980 and 2000, aimed at the decorative fine art market. The high-contrast lighting and saturated tones indicate a focus on emotional ambiance rather than strictly realistic representation.
