You’re invited to view the online
exhibition Light Sprang Forth – celebrating the paintings of Henri van Bentum, to
mark the International Day of Light 2018, May 16th. “Viewing a painting
by Henri van Bentum is a stimulus to the imagination. Perhaps his background as
a diamond-faceter’s son is responsible for the almost crystalline aspect of his
work. The single most extraordinary quality in all his paintings is a luminosity,
a radiance that emanates from within.” Marina Sturdza
“Light Sprang Forth”, acrylic on canvas
1964, by Henri van Bentum, Private Collection
