Zeev Raban Gouache on Paper with Polyester Coating
Bezalel artist Ze'ev Raban (Rabitsky)(1890-1970).
This is one of Raban's later works, influenced by the Persian poet Omar Khayyam with certain elements of an Iranian miniature.
The idea of protecting the gouache paintings with a polyester coating occurred to Raban in the early 1960's.
Raban studied at the Bezalel School of Arts Jerusalem in 1912, and later became a teacher of sculpture and art.
Many of his works can be found in the Israel Museum.
This piece appears in Dr. Gidon Ofrat book " Jerusalem- Tel Aviv"
Page 55. Signed both in English and in Hebrew "Ze'ev Raban".
Size: 71 cm X 60 cm.
