His work received almost immediate official recognition and appreciation from both the press and public. This led to a three-year Royal Subsidy Grant for Painting running consecutively from 1955 to 1958. Between 1956 and 1967, Aat Velhoen created an impressive body of graphic work, comprising nearly 400 prints. He has depicted, in varying media, landscapes, portraits, self-portraits, nudes and drawings of lovers. His often-moving impressions of road-accident victims, women in childbirth and patients before and after operations are a first in art history, which have been devoted to these subjects.\u00a0 Aat Veldhoen\u2019s social idealism in art stems both from his experiences during the \u2018Hunger Winter\u2019 of World War II and the influences from his father as an artist. Aat Veldhoen considered Rembrandt a great master and inspiration source and this inspiration can be witnessed in Veldhoen\u2019s sharp eye for detail and his ability to create, with just a few deft brush-strokes, a profound impression of subjects from everyday life. While Aat Veldhoen has held a certain reverence for Rembrandt\u2019s etchings, his style and technique capture the essence humor or a clever view of current events. Perhaps this is why the director of Amsterdam\u2019s Rembrandt Museum stated in the hour-long Dutch Public Television documentary broadcast in 2002 over Aat Veldhoen; \u201cVeldhoen as the Netherland\u2019s most significant graphic artist of the 20th century.\u201d\u00a0   Aat Veldhoen\u00a0(Amsterdam 1934-2018) groot bewonderaar van Rembrandt is tekenaar, etser, schilder en beeldhouwer. Hij heeft Rembrandt zijn leven lang als voorbeeld beschouwd. Je vindt dit terug in zijn scherpe oog voor detail en zijn vermogen om slechts met enkele lijntjes een indringend beeld van onderwerpen uit zijn dagelijkse omgeving te scheppen. Vaak met een grote dosis humor en een knipoog naar de actualiteit. Aat Veldhoen heeft een oprechte belangstelling voor alle aspecten van het menselijk leven; zoals Simon Carmiggelt het omschreef, vertaalt het zich in tijdloze, universele beelden van mededogen, extase en reflectie die voor ieder toegankelijk zijn en die ook voor de generaties na ons zullen blijven.\u00a0 Zijn grafisch werk werd tentoongesteld in het Rembrandthuis dat daarna dit oeuvre opnam in de collectie.\u00a0 In 2004 exposeerde Veldhoen in datzelfde museum schilderijen, etsen en tekeningen; gewijd aan zijn grootste muze, de vrouw!"}
