HANS ARNOLD R.I.P.

Me and Hans Arnold.

I met Hans Arnold twice. Both times it was together with the publishers from Sanatorium. I remember we all had lunch and then went up to his penthouse studio in the old town in Stockholm. It was raining that day and you heard the rain hit the tin roof as he sat at his drawing table signing some books. When I was a kid I could sit for hours and watch his pictures. Especially the cover illustration for ABBAs Greatest Hits made a lasting impression on me. That day in his studion we didn't really talk much but he seemed like a very kind man.
