Pinchas Litvinovsky, Israeli, born in the Russian Empire, 1894-1985.
In 1912, he immigrated to the Land of Israel and began to study at Bezalel Art School. Later he transferred to the Russian Academy of Arts in Saint Petersburg, informally known as the Saint Petersburg Academy of Arts. In 1919, he returned to the Land of Israel aboard the S.S. Ruslan and settled in Tiberias.
In 1926, he designed the set for The Dybbuk, performed by Habima Theatre in Tel Aviv. Two years later, he moved to Jerusalem. There he joined the young modern artists’ movement.
In the early 1920s, Litvinovsky's work was influenced by Russian constructivism. He painted portraits and oriental scenes, and designed the logo of the Ohel Theater (1925) in this style.
From the 1930s, he began to create Expressionist paintings. In the 1950s, he devoted himself to works on paper in a minimalist graphic style.
