Overview: Stunning, substantial piece of Vintage Mid-Century Modern Israeli Brutalist Metal Art by the artist Fale. This impressive mixed-media wall relief features a heavy-gauge, hand-tooled copper plate meticulously etched and hammered to depict an abstract geometric landscape of the Old City of Jerusalem. The design is brought to life with deeply textured architectural towers, fortresses, and a vibrant, multi-colored glass-enamel sunburst that radiates mid-century optimism. The lower foreground boasts stark multi-layered perspective lines accented with deep burgundy, red, and purple enamel fill. In the lower right corner, the piece features a highly stylized, lowercase signature stamp reading "fale". This marks it as an authentic studio-crafted piece of post-war architectural decor from the premier era of Israeli brutalist handicraft (reminiscent of the acclaimed Araella and Bier workshops).Condition: Artwork is in excellent vintage condition. The copper boasts a gorgeous, rich age-earned dark patina and oxidation, which highlights the intense tool texturing. The colorful enamel inlays remain bright, glossy, and secure. The solid wood framing is entirely intact and structurally sound, showing only minor, natural vintage wear consistent with age. It comes complete with its original top sawtooth hanger on the back, ready to display on your wall immediately.Item Specifics:Condition: Used / Vintage Excellent (True vintage wear, authentic oxidation/patina)Era/Style: Mid-Century Modern, BrutalistCirca: 1960s – 1970sCountry of Origin: IsraelSubject: Old City of Jerusalem (Abstract Architecture & Sunburst)Medium: Mixed Media — Etched Copper Repoussé & Multi-Colored Glass EnamelSignature/Stamp: Hand-engraved lowercase "fale"Framed Size: Approximately 14 ¾" x 20 ⅝"Weight: Approximately 4 lbs.
