About the Item

The Offering, c. 1911, By Alfred Wolmark (1877–1961), Oil on canvas, Signed lower right A rare and symbolically charged work from Wolmark’s post-impressionist period, The Offering presents a moment of spiritual exchange between a well-muscled Black male figure and a luminous White female figure. Rendered in bold impasto and radiant colour, the composition transcends racial archetype to evoke reverence, beauty, and mutual presence. Wolmark, a Polish-born British Jewish artist, was known for his vivid palette and idealized depictions of religious life. Here, he departs from his usual Jewish subjects to explore a broader humanist vision — one that invites reflection on sacrifice, gesture, and spiritual intimacy across difference. Exhibited in a gilt Art Deco frame. 112 × 86.5 cm
