Arthur Sachs

The artist is known for large series of paintings of Swedish divas and Spanish flamenco dancers.

A distinctive feature of the artist is that he captures exactly the body positions of the dancers as well as complex dance movements.

In this painting Arthur Sachs accurately reproduces the hand position, curvature of the spine and head turning characteristic of this dance.

The color scheme of his paintings while living in Sweden was cold, as a reflection of the northern lights.

After moving to Spain his palette becomes much warmer and the paintings become saturated with color.
