Raoul Hynckes (Belgian-born Dutch painter) 1893 - 1973
Raoul Hynckes was a Dutch painter of Belgian origin. The style of Hynckes was initially impressionistic, but in the thirties of the last century he began allegorical still lifes to paint in a very realistic manner and in an extremely fine and meticulous painting style (withered trees, old nails, skulls). He is counted among the magical realists. Regularly he also worked as bookbinding designer and poster designer.
