Einbanddeckel an den Rändern teils minimal nachgedunkelt. Gutes Exemplar. Erste Ausgabe. Der bedeutende deutsch-jüdische, expressionistische Maler und Graphiker (1887 Zerkov/Posen - 1963 Nahanja/Israel) studierte an der Berliner Akademie unter Lovis Corinth und Hermann Struck, danach bei Théophile-Alexandre Steinlen und Henri Matisse in Paris. 1912 gründete er zusammen mit Ludwig Meidner und Richard Janthur die Künstlergruppe "Die Pathetiker". Als Soldat im Ersten Weltkrieg kam er nach Polen und Litauen, wo er das ostjüdische Leben kennenlernte und zu einer neuen Bindung an seine eigene Religion zurückfand. Dies schlug sich in seinen Werken nieder, die zu den wichtigsten bildlichen Darstellungen der ostjüdischen Welt zählen. 1933 floh er nach Palästina, wo er Dozent und später Leiter der Bezalel-Schule für Kunst und Kunsthandwerk wurde.

He attended the School of Art in Berlin in 1906, then studied painting with Lovis Corinth and engraving with Hermann Struck in 1907. From 1908 -1910 he studied in Paris, where he studied with Henri Matisse and Théophile Steinlen, and in 1911 he studied in Italy. When World War I broke out, he enlisted in the German Army, and served on the Eastern Front in Poland and Lithuania, and then in Macedonia. After the war, he returned to Berlin, and in 1922 married Minni Gumpert. Following harassment by the German authorities, the couple immigrated to Palestine in 1933. Jacob Steinhardt worked mainly in woodcuts depicting biblical and Jewish subjects. He participated in the Berlin Secession and founded the Pathetiker Group. He was a member of the Bezalel school group. In 1934, Steinhardt opened an art school in Jerusalem. In 1948, he became Chairman of the Graphics Department at the Bezalel Academy of Art and Design.
