Fokko Mees
Mees was a prolific Dutch artist. Beyond the expressive and compositional strength of his work, it is worth noting that he introduced MC Escher to the technique of engraving end-grain wood. See M.C. Escher: His Life and Complete Graphic Work (Bool, 1992) and https://www.escherinhetpaleis.nl/escher-today/first-wood-engraving/?lang=en
