Joop Moesman (1909 – 1988) was a Dutch artist; a painter of surrealistic art.
When the Rijksuseum (Amsterdam’s ‘National Gallery’) held a competition to find the most beautiful Dutch nude paintings, Moesman’s painting of a nude female cyclist finished 3rd.
Obviously, we feel it should have finished 1st.
We’ve been looking on the web to find further cycling art – preferably Irish. We can’t seem to find much though. Perhaps you, our readers can help us? Do you know an Irish artist who was into cycling? The paintings don’t have to be nude, of course. We’d love to hear from you.
