Harry van Kruiningen is one of those dutch artist who’s importance grows by the year. He was a multi disciplined artist. Painting, etching, sculpting….he did everything. Personally i think his etchings and illustrations belong (arguably) to the very best that were made during the second half of last century in the Netherlands.

They all have something mystical and when you see where his inspirations was coming from ( African masks) one can see the mystic  and recognise the mysticism in his works.
