Artist: Mark Janssen (1974).
Midsummer night
He enjoyed stepping into the world of Miffy and have this icon from his beloved children’s books visit him in his studio. As a children’s book artist, he wanted Miffy to play a role in an illustrated story. He didn’t let her iconic appearance disappear under a layer of paint and didn’t just use her as a steppingstone, but he placed her as a personality in time and space. As if she is there. Being herself, yet being a Miffy who sets foot in the world of Mark Janssen. He says about his Miffy statue Midsummer night: ‘A clear night with moon and stars. With friends. Are they resting after a long journey or are they sad? A violin and a trumpet are the only things you hear. A tranquil image that tempts you to finish the story yourself. Where are they coming from and where are they going to …’.
Together with our supplier and UNICEF it was decided to make extra Miffys, once-only, of the 6 most popular versions of 15 cm in the Miffy Art Parade.
We expect them to be sold out quickly.
