Henry Sanders
(Helmuth Salomon) 1918-1982

"I am striving, through my figurative art, to say something
about the timelessness of the human condition.
” Henry Sanders

Today, the art of Henry Sanders is highly prized by collectors; his paintings are held in private collections around the world.
Now some of Henry Sanders more outstanding works have been brought together in this collection.
Of course you are not under any obligation to buy, but here is a unique opportunity to collect the work of this master painter under full guarantee.

On viewing the original exhibition in 1954, Professor Michael Bullock commented;

"The keynote is a total harmony between subject matter and style that can only arise out of an intense power of identification, operating in a domain where it is both unexpected and rare, that raises Henry Sanders' painting, drawings and scultures of animals so far above the usual sentimental or purely decorate treatments."
-The Jewish Quarterly, Autumn 1954-

Henry Sanders as a Draughtsman

Nobody who is familiar with the creative processes of drawing and painting will ignore the masterly ability of Sanders ne Saloman to draw. Drawing was an obsession with him and he has left us a copious collection of works on paper. The work on canvas and in Gouache is not really understood without reference to his roots in the German and Continental canons of draughtsmanship. To see Dürer with his curve counter curve technique is to understand Sanders and his “urgent and definite style” in delineating his chosen theme. -L.S-
