About Martha Van Coppenolle
- Martha Van Coppenolle (April 13, 1912 – September 22, 2004) was a Flemish Belgian artist and book illustrator.
- She was cited by the 'Letterenhuis - Museum' (the Antwerp Museum of the Literary Arts) to be one of the most prolific and influential of all Flemish illustrators.
- She created pen and ink drawings for over 40 novels and children's books, particularly during the period between 1930 and 1960 within the Flemish region.
- Her early work leaned strongly towards the Russian Avant-Garde Movement, although she would equally be at ease, creating very colourful and detailed fairy tale illustrative motifs, for certain nursery rhymes when needed.
- Aside from illustrating, she was equally involved in creating graphic design, ceramic sculptures, oil paintings and furniture design concepts.
- In the later stages of her life, she gained international recognition as a stained glass artist.
