Биография

Jan Vanhellemont (°1952) from Leuven, Belgium, is the webmaster of this site.

In 1972, he graduated from the Sint-Lukas Academy in Brussels. Still as a student, he won the Audience Award at the 10th International Cartoon Contest of the Humorfestival in Knokke-Heist in 1971, so after his studies he was immediately launched as a cartoonist and designer of posters and record sleeves. However, since he did not like the artistic circles, he went studying social sciences and started working in Human Resources for forty years, first as a manager in various companies, later as a lecturer in a master's degree programme.

Despite his career switch, he continued to make drawings and paintings. When he created the Master and Margarita website in 2006, he already had the idea of making illustrations for each chapter of the novel. However, it only became real in 2020, when he published the Annotations of this website in book form on the occasion of the 80th birthday of the novel. In the electronic versions of the book you will find the illustrations in colour, in the paperback version you will find black and white prints.
