Please find details of “Early Morning” by Reuven Rubin
Gentle painting Early Morning captures the moment of fresh early breeze during the hot days. Elegant partly transparent olives slightly bend. Rubin gives the trees living characters. Everything is soft and weightless. Thin silhouette of the shepherd leads the way between the trees. The land and the nature play the main part, determining the calm atmosphere. Unique style of the artist makes paintings full of love and wisdom. This piece is like a beginning of inspiration, that would lead to in-depth discovery and reflection. Each detail and living part of the work strives upward, therefore its seems vertical within a horizontal format.
Reuven Rubin
Reuven Rubin was a pioneering figurative Israeli artist of the mid-20th and one of the creators of the new Eretz- Israel style. The modernist artist is famous for gentle landscapes of Jerusalem and Galilee. In 1912, he arrived in future Eretz-Israel, which was still the part of the Ottoman Empire. The painter later wrote, that when he got off the ship in Jaffa, he realized that this was his land, where he would live.
