Ceramic Tile Art NOAH'S ARK from JERUSALEM Signed by (Harry) Araten, 6" square

Description

Offered here is a striking piece of CERAMIC TILE ART depicting NOAH'S ARK.  This art is by the late Israeli artist, Harry Araten (1936 - 2001) known for his art which is simultaneously whimsical and serious. This piece comes from the Karakashian Bros. in Jerusalem. It is located on the Via Dolorosa (Way of Sorrows), a processional route in the Old City of Jerusalem that is believed to be the route Jesus walked on the way to his crucifixion.  This beautiful tile measures 6" square and is in excellent condition. It can be hung on a wall or placed flat on desk or shelf.
I received this as a gift and displayed it in my office (along with about 100 other arks) for about twenty years.  Now, however, m
y wife and I are well into our 70s and we are downsizing, so most of the Noah's Ark Collection is being given to family and friends or being sold on ebay.  This Noah's Ark art by Harry Araten is being sold with these guidelines:
1.  I cannot accept returns.
2.  Shipping is via USPS Priority Mail and only to the 50 States in the USA
3.  Payment is to be made within three days of purchase.
Please look carefully at all the photos, and feel welcome to ask questions before you bid. I'll do my best to answer promptly. Thanks for taking the time to look at this listing.
