Joyful, high‑chroma painting of a bride and groom before a sun‑splashed, Mediterranean‑feeling townscape. Signed lower right “Z. Steynovitz.” The crisp black contouring and celebratory palette recall Chagall, while the graphic snap and stacked color blocks nod toward Pop and post‑war Expressionism. A handsome, linen‑lined gilt frame completes the presentation and makes the work turnkey for display.

Dating and Background
Zamy Steynovitz (1952–2000) was a Polish‑born, Israeli painter celebrated for luminous scenes of weddings, musicians, and city festivals. After art studies in Tel Aviv and New York, he exhibited widely across Europe and the U.S. His work blends a romantic, Chagall‑esque sensibility with contemporary colorism and bold, calligraphic line. Bridal imagery is one of his signature themes, and compositions featuring a radiant sun and seaside villages are especially sought after by collectors.

This example is a richly worked, hand‑signed piece on canvas‑textured support; under magnification one sees layered, opaque color passages and crisp black linework typical of the artist’s studio output.

Collector Notes
• Signature: “Z. Steynovitz” lower right.
• Subject: bridal couple with bouquet before a radiant sun, stylized skyline, sailboat, and clocktower.
• Medium: paint on canvas‑textured board (exact medium likely acrylic or mixed media).

• Ready to hang: presented in a period gilt frame with linen liner.

Decorating Ideas
Perfect over a console in the entry, above a piano, or as the color driver in a living room. Pairs beautifully with neutral upholstery, rattan and brass accents, or as a vivid counterpoint to modernist pieces. Great gift for newlyweds or an anniversary wall.

Dimensions
Framed: approximately (to be confirmed) — please message for exact outside measurements.
