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.
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.
After the Second World War, Koornstra bought an old litho press with which he set up a printing shop in his studio. Together with Piet Clement, their Printshop at Prinsengracht 845 in Amsterdam grew into a well-known gallery of artistic printing.
Koornstra decorated many Boekenbals in the fifties, sixties and seventies, with decorations and decor. His death on Tuesday 26 September 1978 was national news.
