Samuel Bing was an art critic and a dealer in Chinese and Japanese art. His shop in Paris was a prestigious Salon de L'Art Nouveau and had great influence on the The Hague Gallery Arts and Crafts. The Belgian artist and designer Henry van de Velde (1863-1957) played an important role in both galleries and was a key figure in several overlapping circles of artists and art lovers in The Hague and Paris. One of Van de Velde's friends was Johan Thorn Prikker (1868-1932), a number of whose works had been featured in Bing's gallery.
