Christian Art: Heinrich Hofmann

Hofmann was a late nineteenth century artist made immortal by the company Gospel Trumpet among other things, that put his works on their many many products almost as a means of brand identification. Below I present his three best known works.

 Christ and the Rich Young Ruler

  1. Hello,
    I have been searching as to where I may find the value of some work of Henrich Hofmann. My mother has had a portfolio of several pieces of his work since the 1950's... and even then it was evident that this hard cover elaborate folder was very old. I have not been able to find much information, however if anyone could guide me in the right area we are looking to sell this art we have as it should be on display somewhere and not tucked away.
    Any information would be appreciated.
    Thank you,
    Carrie
