Hendrik Albertus van den Eijnde or van den Eynde (29 November 1869 – 1 February 1939) was a Dutch sculptor. His work was part of the sculpture event in the art competition at the 1936 Summer Olympics. Life and work Hendrik van den Eijnde was born into a Catholic family in Haarlem. He initially worked as a frame maker and received drawing lessons from the sculptor (1849–1919), in whose studio he worked for several years. He continued to develop through practice and study and was supported by Bart van Hove from 1902. In 1903 he founded the Haarlem Art Circle together with Henri Boot, , , and Ben Kamp. Van den Eijnde led the sculptor's studio with Hildo Krop, and on the sculpture decoration of the Scheepvaarthuis in Amsterdam, which was completed in 1916. This workshop gave a great impulse to the revival of stone sculpture in the Netherlands, where stone carving could be learned again. Most of their work parallels the heyday of the Amsterdam School. He started his own studio in 1917 and was a construction sculptor at the Government Buildings Agency () from 1917 to 1923. Van den Eijnde lived in Haarlem and Heemstede and worked there until 1922.
