These remarkable portraits of seven Holocaust survivors, commissioned by the Prince of Wales, went display at Buckingham Palace yesterday.
The paintings featured in a BBC2 documentary called Survivors: Portraits of the Holocaust, which was broadcast on Holocaust Memorial Day.
The portraits are: Helen Aronson by Paul Benney, Manfred Goldberg by Clara Drummond, Lily Ebert by Ishbel Myerscough, Zigi Shipper by Jenny Saville, Arek Hersh by Massimiliano Pironti, Anita Lasker-Wallfisch by Peter Kuhfeld and Rachel Levy by Stuart Pearson Wright.
The Prince of Wales, a patron of the Holocaust Memorial Day Trust, said: “My abiding hope is that this special collection will act as a further guiding light for our society.”
