[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 9765600, member: 2844"]It is one of those cases where they got it wrong.:rolleyes:;) In the link below it says he was born on March 26th 1932 in Leiden, which is in Holland, the Netherlands. I didn't post it before because it is in Dutch only:sorry:: [URL]http://www.capriolus.nl/nl/content/jong-hans-de[/URL] Danish and Dutch often get confused, the cultures are very similar. But the name Hans de Jong couldn't be more Dutch if it tried, and the same goes for his art.;) And while there are quite a few Danish of Dutch origin (mostly descendants of 16th century Dutch who were invited to grow crops for the growing population of Copenhagen), Hans de Jong wasn't one of them.:)[/QUOTE]
