Richard Nicolaüs Roland Holst

Richard Nicolaüs Roland Holst was a Dutch painter, draftsman, lithographer, book cover designer, etcher and writer. Many of his works were in a modified Symbolist style. Holst made numerous woodcuts, designed posters, and provided illustrations for his wife's works, as well as designing the typography. Although most of his works were small in scale, he also created murals for the Beurs van Berlage, the office of the General Diamond Workers' Union of the Netherlands and the building of the Supreme Court of the Netherlands in The Hague. Later, he designed stained glass windows for St. Martin's Cathedral, Utrecht and several public buildings. Holst attached great importance to collaborations between artists from different disciplines, and is often referred to as a "community artist". He was heavily influenced by the ideas of the writer, William Morris; treating art as an idealistic, service-oriented activity that emphasized purity and clear form.
