ISBN: 9789066303416
Description: Zwolle: WBooks, Museum Van Loon, 2013. 24cm., pbk., 63pp. illus., most in color. Exhibition catalogue. Dutch text. Summary: Dortsman is responsible for the design of numerous canal buildings in Amsterdam including the famous circular Lutheran Church on the Singel, the Sixhuis on the Amstel, Maison Descartes on the Vijzelgracht, the Oosterkerk on the Wittenburgergracht (where Dortsman is buried) and of course Museum Van Loon on the Keizersgracht. Dortsman’s buildings with their beautiful sober style are exemplary for the Dutch Classicist style. The exhibition shows his designs and his commissions by means of paintings (amongst whom Gerrit Berckheyde), drawings, photographs and maps. After nearly 400 years the Adriaan Dortsman œuvre revives again.
