Harmen Klaas Post (Hallum, July 6, 1907 – Utrecht, February 15, 1995) was a Dutch painter, illustrator, and teacher. He was best known for his landscapes, portraits, and book illustrations. Throughout his career, he developed a broad style, ranging from cubist-expressionist to tranquil realism.
At the age of twenty, after studying painting at a trade school, Harmen Post left for The Hague to study at the Academy of Fine Arts. There, he specialized in stage decoration, which later led to work as a set designer for revue and operetta companies. Despite his success in this sector, Post ultimately decided to focus on a career as an advertising designer and later as a painter.
Post was a great nature lover, a theme that often recurred in his work. He painted landscapes on Texel, villages along the Lek River, and various locations in Germany. Besides painting, he illustrated books, magazines, and newspapers.
Although Post exhibited few works during his lifetime, he enjoyed the admiration of former students and fellow artists. He was known for refusing commissions when clients tried to exert too much influence on the creative process.
