Hendrik Haverman

Hendrik Johannes Haverman (23 October 1857, Amsterdam - 11 August 1928, The Hague) was a Dutch artist; known primarily for his portrait drawings.

He studied at the Rijksakademie van beeldende kunsten in Amsterdam, and the art academies in Antwerp and Brussels.

In his turn, he gave private lessons to Edmée Broers (1876-1955), Meta Cohen Gosschalk [nl], Maria Adeline Alice Schweistal (1864-1950) and Pauline Suij; at a time when women were not admitted to the Rijksakademie.

The 1901 edition of Camera Obscura [nl], by Nicolaas Beets, contains a portrait of the author by Haverman.

He was also an art critic and wrote numerous articles for De Gids, the oldest Dutch literary journal.
