The same day, after the photoshoot in the museum, I also made some portrait photos of Gerda Havertong. One of these pictures has recently been used in ICCO magazine, for an interview with Gerda Havertong. Gerda Havertong has been actively involved with ICCO and has been a member for years.

About ICCO

ICCO is an organisation that works on a world without poverty and injustice. For this reason ICCO supports various projects in the world that have that same main goal, and ICCO gives a contribution to these projects by for example financing it and giving assistence.

The interview for ICCO Magazine used one of the portrait photos I made of miss Havertong. The interview was held by Jan-Henk van Vulpen. You can read (in Dutch) and see the article and picture in the link below. I also added the photo in this blogpost.
