Hedvig Collin

Hedvig Jacobine Henriette Collin (27 May 1880 – 2 April 1964) was a Danish painter, illustrator and writer. She created both portraits and landscapes but she is remembered above all for illustrating books for children. In addition to her illustrations in many Danish publications for young people, she wrote and illustrated a number of works in English, including Two Viking Boys (1949) and Young Hans Christian Andersen (1955).
