Item Description
Jossi Stern (1923-1992) was a Jewish artist whom hailed from Hungary and came to Israel in 1940 at the age of 17. Recognizing the looming threat of Hitler, Stern left Europe and on his travels befriended two wealthy immigrants where once in Palestine they assisted him in financing his art studies at the Bezalel Art Academy.
Stern worked as a graphic editor and illustrator of the Hagana's official paper and following the founding of the State of Israel, Stern worked as an illustrator for various newspapers and media outlets including Yediot Ahronot and Davar amongst others.
Stern's work almost always depicts imagery of Jerusalem, the city that became his home and allowed him to flourish. In addition to imagery of the city, his works frequently depict the myriad of figures within the city, including merchants, beggars and all the types of people in between.
The current work depicts an Israeli landscape with trees and architecture all under a blue sky. The artist meticulously depicts the landscape giving the viewer much to gaze upon.
Presented matted, and within a carved and gilt finished wood frame and glazed.
