Johanna van Eybergen
Johanna Gerarda Theodora van Eybergen (also spelled van Eijbergen, 17 April 1865, Ambon — 13 May 1950, The Hague[1]) was a Dutch artist specializing in applied arts and design, notable for her Art Nouveau work on metal. She was the first and for a long time the only Duch woman artist working on design on metal.[2]
Van Eybergen studied painting and metal design at the Royal Academy of Art between 1887 and 1893.[1] Between 1904 and 1909 she worked at the coppersmith workshop at the G. Dikkers & Co. in Hengelo, creating Art Nouveau design. Her ornaments used mainly natural themes, often insects. After that and until 1930 she worked as a drawing teacher in Alkmaar.[2][3]
