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. After befriending two wealthy immigrants on his travels, 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.
This current work is a collage with a caricature style drawing of Hasidic Jews interacting with another group of Jews, one with a guitar and has been personalized from the artist.
The opposite side with another wonderful caricature, also personalized to Miriam and Robert Rothman.
The collage also has two photographs included.
Frame: 17 1/2"H x 22"W
Condition: Good, there is a card within that is slightly off center but overall a lovely collage.
