There are 12 images of this item.

Abstract lithograph by Brazilian artist Fayga Ostrower, signed and numbered 28/30 and dated 1958 at lower left. Mounted in the original rosewood frame. Fayga Perla Ostrower was born in Lodz, Poland in 1920, and died in Rio de Janeiro in 2001. Her family, who were Jewish (Krakowski), moved to Germany in 1924, and fled to Belgium in 1932; they emigrated to Brazil 2 years later. Fayga married Heinz Ostrower, a German historian/philosopher, and they had 2 children. She studied drawing at the Brazilian Ass'n of Fine Arts in Rio de Janeiro, and graphic arts at the Getulio Vargas Foundation. In 1948 she had a solo exhibition at Itapetininga Gallery in Sao Paolo. Her early style echoed the work of German expressionist Kathe Kollwitz. She went on to exhibit throughout Brazil and abroad. In 1952, she rec'd a Fullbright Scholarship and went to study at the Brooklyn Museum. During this time, she began to be greatly influenced by the works of Paul Cezanne, and her work took a turn past cubism into abstraction. Her work is hung in the major museums of Brazil and also in Europe and the Americas. She rec'd the Nat'l Grand Prize for Engraving at the 1957 Sao Paolo Biennale; the Internat'l Prize at the 1958 Venice Biennale; and awards at the Florence, Mexico and Buenos Aires Biennales. She lectured at Spellman College, Atlanta, and at Slade School of Fine Art, London. She was president of the Brazilian Ass'n of Arts 1963-66, and was an honorary member of the Academy of Art and Design in Florence. She rec'd the Brazilian Order of Cultural Merits in 1997.

"Thanks so much for the appraisal - our curiosity has now been satisfied. For the last 4 years, since purchasing the home, we have often wondered the value. Have a wonderful week." - Ryan and Lesley H

"Thank you so much... I have a similar table, in not as good of condition... it has a minor split and a ring from a hot plate.... I am considering selling it, so I appreciate this service you provide... thanks so much." - M

"I just want to take a moment to respond with a hearty thank you for being out there with this information! Until I punched in "filigree" along with antique/brass/hanging/Indian/etc......I wasn't pulling up any pictures that resemble what I have. My Dad was an art/antique/music box collector-dealer who left behind many items I have hung onto, but never knew the approximate value of. I have one such fixture with the same lattice-type work, but it is taller, in that it has a more domed top/shape. It also only has one bulb. Now, I'm off to check your response on the cloisonne lamp...... Thanks again.......I'm glad to know you're out there." - Debbie G
