TITLE: BEAUTIFUL JERUSALEM
ARTIST: Bracha Lavee SIGNATURE: Pencil Signed Lower Left MEDIUM: Serigraph EDITION: 250 SIZE: 24" X 27"Bracha Lavee is an Israeli artist whose expressive art combines Jerusalem, Israeli and Bible themes with a contemporary visual style which is deeply rooted in ancient and modern biblical experiences. Her use of felt in bright, semi-tropical colors allows her to express these themes dramatically.
Bracha Lavee has created this gorgeous vibrant silkscreen in which the viewer appears to be looking out of a window overlooking Jerusalem at sunset. The sky is beautifully done in pinks, peaches, and red signifying that sun is going down. The style of the buildings are unique to Jerusalem. At the bottom of the Serigraph is written Fairest of Sights, Joy of All the Earth (Psalms 48:3) in matte gold ornamented Hebrew Letters on a navy background. It describes the beauty and eternal nature of Jerusalem whose glory stems from G-d choosing her as the site of His Temple. The window is flanked by two Pillars done in shades of blue and Turquoise and highlighted with matte silver. The top of the arch shaped window has a matte gold Menorah in the center and the Fruits of Israel to either side of it on a background of teal. This silkscreen is done in typical Bracha Lavee style, using gold metallic to accentuate and outline parts of the picture to give it that aura of mystery.
