Jos van Haecken

Jos van Haecken is an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

The Netherlands in the 1800s had plenty of stiff, serious prints, but Jos van Haecken kept sneaking jokes into his work—tiny, odd details that made the viewer pause and smirk. Look closely at the *H Beard Print Collection* and you might spot a man whose beard has turned into a tangle of garden tools. He belongs in Gallery Tiles because his prints prove art doesn’t always have to be serious to be sharp.
