A rare painting of Mahatma Gandhi by Clare Leighton from 1931 will be sold in London next month.

Clare Leighton painted Gandhi. She met him through her partner. The painting stayed with her family and was shown in a London gallery in 1931.
A painting was fixed in 1974. Gandhi was killed in 1948 by a right-wing activist in India. Some thought he favoured Muslims.
The painting is important. It shows Gandhi ready to speak. More people should see and enjoy it.
