Sandhaas was the illegitimate son of Maria Margarete Sandhaas (1771-1830), who grew up in Haslach and moved to Darmstadt in 1816 to live with his uncle, the theater painter Josef Sandhaas .

From 1818 he received lessons at the Grand Ducal Drawing School from Franz Hubert Müller . In Darmstadt a friendship arose with the architect Friedrich Maximilian Hessemer . Sandhaas also maintained close contacts with the artists Jakob Felsing , August Lucas and Johann Heinrich Schilbach . On March 27, 1820, at the age of 19, he enrolled in history painting at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich .

In 1823 Sandhaas moved to Freiburg and visited the Herder'sche Kunstanstalt there, which was directed by the Darmstadt engraver Karl Barth. A year later, Sandhaas moved to Munich to study with Cornelius and in 1828 he came to Frankfurt , where he worked as an illustrator for the publisher E. Ullmann. From 1830, with a few interruptions, he lived in Haslach until his death.

Sandhaas preferred to work as a landscape and portrait painter; he also worked as an illustrator of literary and mythological works. As a draftsman and watercolorist, he is to be counted among the most important representatives of late Romanticism in Baden .

Sandhaas is the hero in Heinrich Hansjakob's novella Wilde Kirschen (1888). In Haslach there is a special education and advice center - school for the mentally handicapped, the Carl-Sandhaas-Schule , named after him.
