Autor

Der Amsterdamer Tätowierer und Historiker Henk Schiffmacher ist eine lebende Legende in der Welt der Tattoos. Seit den 1970er Jahren reiste er um die Welt und trug dabei eine der weltweit größten Sammlungen zeitgenössischer und historischer Tattoo-Ephemera zusammen - das Schiffmacher Tattoo Heritage. Er hat viele Rock- und Popstars tätowiert, und sein Tattoo-Studio zieht unzählige Tattoo-Pilger an. Als Art Director und Autor hat er über zwanzig Bücher veröffentlicht, darunter 1000 Tattoos von TASCHEN, und auch für viele Marken Designs gestaltet. 2017 wurde ihm vom König und der Königin der Niederlande der Ritterorden von Oranien-Nassau verliehen, einer der für Zivilisten höchsten Auszeichnungen des Landes.
