Sax BerlinThe Golden Mind : Life's Celebration. Contemporary Oil Painting2021
2021
About the Item
We are excited to bring this incredible painting to public attention. Berlin is renowned for his use of colour, pigments and texture but this piece is truly exceptional. Sumptuous in detail and material it glows and shimmers, changing nuances with changing light. When we first saw it, it generated an outpouring of genuine emotion, only great artists can cause such an effect. "A golden mind stoops not to shows of dross; I'll then not give nor hazard aught for lead. What says the silver with her virgin hue?" says Shakespeares Prince of Morocco in The Merchant of Venice. Such an apt view for a work of this stature, indeed not of lowly earthbound, pedestrian humanity; a higher power has created this masterpiece.
Hand ground pigments, 24 ct gold leaf, copper leaf and crushed marble.

Sax Berlin
We are privileged to sell works on behalf of Sax Berlin. Sax, arguably the finest exponent of 21st Century Classicism, has devoted his life to absorbing the culture of art and architecture in Europe, Asia & North America. He is undoubtedly a genius of our times and one of the great secrets of modern art. When one reviews his oeuvre, 10 distinct & separate styles emerge, displaying Berlin’s mastery of his subject. In fact only Picasso has achieved this height of genius. His students and collectors call him “The Master”. Berlin is a unique artist, using techniques mastered during his studies; ranging from antiquity through the medieval and Renaissance to the present; he creates the visual outcomes he wants and that delight collectors. The paintings Berlin has created in his New York, Greek and Cornish studios are of museum quality and are rarely seen in Art Sales offering a combination of beautiful artworks and investment opportunity. Harvard University refer to him as a Master Artist. The President of the Asia Society on Park Avenue, NYC wrote to Berlin that “your work is beautiful” and Bernard Faure, Professor of Asia Studies at Columbia University wrote “your icons really do have a life of their own”. Sax Berlin is a modern Master Painter in the truest sense of the term and follows in the footsteps of the Great Masters of the past.
