Ninetta Sombart

Life and Art

by Volker Harlan

With ninety full-page reproductions, this book is the only available overview of Ninetta Sombart's life and work as a painter. Her work is known widely through many single reproductions, but is here shown for the first time in a comprehensive collection.

Sombart brings the spiritual element of human beings to the fore, and her style is unmistakably different from other Christian art in history. The largest group of her paintings are based around Gospel images, in which she attempts to show Jesus as the Son of God, rather than as Jesus the man. She has developed a unique colour technique which expresses the esoteric side of Christ.
