Life and work
In 1874-1875, Colinet wrote the booklet Recueil Des Restes De Notre Art National - Verzameling der Overblijfsels onzer Nationale Kunst der XIste tot de XVIIIde Eeuw, which was regarded as a standard work on the period it describes. In 1877 he left his hometown of Brussels and became special supervisor under Pierre Cuypers during the construction of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.[2] In 1878 he oversaw Cuypers' restoration of the City Hall facade.[3] Together with Cuypers he founded the Quellinusschool in Amsterdam. Colinet was also the first director of this school.[2] In 1880, together with Cuypers and F. Stoltzenberg, he wrote Album van Ornamenten en Stijlproeven uit de verschillende Tijdperken der Bouwkunst ("Album of Ornaments and Style Tests from the Different Eras of Architecture").
