My father was in the British army and was involved in the liberation of Belsen concentration camp in March 1945. While there he met and was friends with a Hungarian Jew called Dudinsky who was in a displaced persons camp. My father provided him with drawing and painting materials with which he produced drawings and a painting of my fathers girlfriend (my mother)
Sadly my Mother died recently and these drawings and painting have become more important to my Dad.
I wondered if you could give me any further information as to what may have become of this artist.
Thank you,
yours sincerely
Paul Ford
