Metten Koornstra (Rotterdam, 1912 - Amsterdam, 1978) was a Dutch graphic artist and painter of tranquil landscapes and figures. He also illustrated books and designed book covers and theatre sets.

Koornstra was born into a strict Protestant, Calvinist environment.
After many trips through France, where he visited many museums, Koornstra decided to take lessons at the Academy in Rotterdam in the late thirties. There he learned the technique of lithography from Derkzen van Angeren. His work is characterized by a melancholic disposition and the art of omission.
Koornstra and his wife graced many Writers' and Book Balls in the fifties, sixties and seventies; he with decorations and decor; she with her dance orchestra. He also designed the original book cover of The Stone Bridal Bed by Harry Mulisch.

His death on Tuesday, September 26, 1978, was national news.
