About the Item

View of the al-Aqsa Mosque, Jerusalem Watercolor on pencil lines 40 x 28 cm Signed lower right With Frame Lucienne Épron grew up in the Charente Maritime in France, and was awakened to art under the influence of her tutors Felix Lionnet and Victor Richard, painters from Nantes. She followed the teaching of François Rivoire and Blanche Odin from whom her beginnings are borrowed. Armed with this knowledge, she taught in Rochefort and then in Strasbourg. Nothing so far answers our question. From the pleasant still lifes to the views of Jerusalem and the Nile, there remains a void to be filled, a singularity to be found. We know that it was in Strasbourg that she met Pierre Montet, who was then in charge of the publication of the surveys and discoveries of the Tomb of Ty for the French Institute in Cairo. On the spot, in Saqquarah, it is the effervescence, the competition is hard, it is necessary to publish before the English. The French archaeologists lacked an artist to carry out the surveys, to draw, to report. Lucienne Épron was hired in 1930. Work at Saqqarah began in April 1931. Our painter thus travels from 1931 to 1936 between France and the Orient. Rochefort seems far away now. And yet, it is probably in Rochefort that the journey begins. The singularity is there. In the thirties, a woman painter leaves for Egypt. The story is beautiful. Then fifty five years old, she follows the archaeologists of the Institute. But Egypt and the Orient, she had crossed and dreamed of them much earlier at Pierre Loti's, a stone's throw from her home in the Vendée. She evoke later the celebrations at Loti's house, from Cairo, in her text in October 1940. She recounts her encounter in the living room with the mummy who, I quote: "continued his dream of eternity in a glass cage. The strength of the images collected here, those that will be published by the Institute in 1939 as part of a scientific mission, owes much to this part of the dream and fascination exerted by Egypt and perhaps also to the fantasy of Loti, who knew how to plant an idea, a desire that would take more than twenty years to germinate.

Old City Jerusalem City Walls landscape Scene Painting, Judaica

By Jossi Stern

Located in Surfside, FL

Vibrant Gouache and watercolor painting by Israeli master JOSSI STERN. on paper mounted to board. 31x34.75, 23.5x27.5 without frame. Hungary, b. 1923, d. 1992 Jossi (Yossi) Stern, son of David and Katerina, was born in the Bakon Hills of Hungary, in 1923. He was already drawing when at the age of ten he moved with his family from the Bakon Hill region to the considerably more cosmopolitan Budapest. Recognizing the looming threat of Hitler and the pending Nazi invasion of Hungary, in 1940, at the age of seventeen, the young artist made his way to Palestine aboard the Sakaria, an old ship heavily crowded with 2,300 other refugees. Before reaching the shores of Palestine, then under the British Mandate, the British Navy intercepted the ship and declared Stern and all those aboard illegal immigrants. Stern was sent to a prison camp where he remained incarcerated by the British for six months. In 1943, having spent a few years doing agricultural work, Stern was encouraged by close friends who recognized his artistic talent to enroll in the prestigious Bezalel School of the Arts in Jerusalem. An outstanding student, he eventually became a highly respected teacher of Graphic Arts at Bezalel. Stern is recognized in Israel as having been one of the country's premier artists...
