Constant Nieuwenhuys (Amsterdam 1920 – Utrecht 2005) was a Dutch visual artist, author and musician. He was a leading member of the Cobra art movement, which also included Alechinsky, Karel Appel, Corneille and Arger Jorn (see this lithograph Constant dedicated to Jorn). Constant is seen by many as the intellectual engine of this movement. Constant was not only a painter, but also a designer of visionary architecture, which he presented under the title ' New Babylon'. He signed his work with his first name Constant and was usually referred to by this name.light handling marks on the edges of the sheet
