LEENDERT JURRIAAN JORDAAN (1885-1980)

Dutch artist and cartoonist, a virulent anti-Nazi employed by the Dutch weekly news magazine De Groene Amsterdammer. Jordaan continued to contribute artwork to the journal while it was published underground during the German occupation. His most noted work depicted a giant, unstoppable Nazi "robot" advancing on helpless soldiers. Rare collection of Jordaan's wartime works, published by De Groene ca. Extraordinary works of art suitable for framing.

A renowned Dutch film critic and artist who achieved widespread recognition in his country for his pointed political cartoons during the Second World War satirizing Nazism and Dutch supporters of the German regime. His drawings are particularly striking because of their graphic expressiveness and complex inking techniques.
