HAP Grieshaber (Helmut Andreas Paul Grieshaber) was a German artist, known for his large-format woodcuts and his pacifist activism. He became an apprentice printer at the age of 17, and spent the next few years training and traveling. However, when the Nazis came to power, they banned Grieshaber's work.
