Hanne Varming sculptures
Hanne Varming (1939–2022) was one of Denmark’s most cherished sculptors, known for her deeply human and poetic bronze figures. Her work captures quiet moments from everyday life. Showcasing children, elderly women, and gentle encounters between people, all shaped with warmth, sensitivity, and remarkable presence.
Varming created sculptures that feel both intimate and timeless and her art invites closeness and connection. Her figures have become beloved for their honesty, emotional depth, and subtle humor.
We are proud and excited to present a selection of her works, now available to acquire and pick up at Danas Pl.
Lithographic and classic posters framed in hand gilded and hand painted frames.
All the artworks we sell at Bendtsen´s are framed by me in our own workshop. All our pieces have different frames, designs, and colors, that compliment the posters or the expression and line of the lithographs. The framed artworks are therefore all individual and every one is made by hand at Frederiksberg, Danas Plads.

Folmer Bendtsen
“When my father, Folmer Bendtsen, died in 1993, I found a beautiful, old lithographic poster from 1954 in his archives. The poster was made for an art exhibition at Charlottenborg in Copenhagen. Both motif and text were made by himself in collaboration with a lithographic workshop. This finding really piqued my interest in lithographic exhibition posters.”

The beautiful print “ Rhinoceros in the sunshine” is made in relation to an art book with 28 prints, published in the 1970s. The book is titled "Journey in the jungle and on the savannah" and was created in a collaboration with Hans Scherfig himself who died in 1979.
Hans Scherfig was a Danish writer and painter whose work bridged sharp social critique and poetic imagination. As an author, he became famous for satirical novels such as Stolen Spring (1940) and Frydenholm (1962), where he exposed hypocrisy, injustice, and the rigidity of society. At the same time, his visual art like his vibrant “jungle paintings” filled with exotic animals and vegetation, revealed a more playful and decorative side, inspired by Rousseau yet distinctly his own. A lifelong communist, Scherfig combined politics, humor, and artistry, leaving behind a body of work that is both critical and enchanting.
The piece is framed with an vintage black frame placed on a rosy gray background
