J. F. Metzelaar (1818-1897) en W. C. Metzelaar (1848-1918). Bouwmeesters voor justitie.
Rotterdam, Stichting BONAS, 2009. 184 pp. B./w. ills.Softcover. Oblong 8vo. (Bibliografieën en oeuvrelijsten van Nederlandse architecten en stedebouwkundigen).Johan Frederik Metzelaar and Willem Cornelis Metzelaar were prominent architects in their time. J.F. Metzelaar is an example of a self-made man, he started his career as a carpenter and developed into an architect. His son started his career as an architect after a, for that time, modern education at the Polytechnic School in Delft. Their designs and their active role in the world of architecture make them important in terms of architectural history, but especially their work for the Ministry of Justice makes them interesting in a broader cultural-historical sense. - Text in Dutch.
