Lot description
This framed oil on canvas painting is by David Gilboa (Israeli, 1910-1976). The expressionistic artwork depicts a religious interior, specifically a synagogue setting, focused on an ornate Torah Ark draped in decorative textiles. The composition includes a classical column capital to the left and a blue podium or bimah in the lower foreground. The artist utilized a heavy impasto technique with thick, gestural brushstrokes in a palette featuring ochre, deep red, brown, and cool blue. The painting is signed in the lower left corner with a Hebrew inscription for Safed (Tzfat) and the name D. Gilboa. The canvas is stretched on a wooden frame and housed in a dark-stained wood frame with a wide, linen-covered inner matting. Artist: David Gilboa (Romanian, 1910-1976) Dimensions: 16.00"L x 1.50"W x 19.00"H Weight: 1.00 lb 15.50oz
