Summary

Description
Tempera painting. At the invitation of Dr. J.W. IIzerman, Mr. G.B. Hooijer attended the May 6, 1916 meeting of the Commission on Symbolism. As an advisor. But, we read in the minutes of the meeting of the Board of Directors of the Colonial Institute, on June 19 of the same year he was already appointed as a permanent member of the commission. A valuable asset to this active committee, which conceived and commissioned all the art on and in the building on Mauritskade.

As a former soldier of the Topographical Service in the East Indies and a very deserving draftsman, Hooijer's contribution consisted mainly of providing the sculptors with the right data. He made the drawings of the subjects that the commission first determined. According to his guidance, numerous sculptures were executed. He also gained experience as an advisor to the Indian department at the Great Exhibition in Paris in 1900. When Hooijer began his work for the commission he was sixty years old (he lived to be 86) and, given his health, he always sought the warmer regions of Europe for most of the year. Thus for months he traveled from hotel to hotel to places such as Rome, Florence and Nice. Always keeping in touch with the committee by extensive correspondence, he had his very definite input. A good example of his enormous zeal and insight can be found on the first floor (formerly: the bel-etage) of the museum, in the area of the glass elevator. Here, over about forty linear meters in total, is depicted the story of the first shipping to the East Indies by Cornelis de Houtman.

Hooijer, before Louis Vreugde started sculpting, made all the drawings for this story, some of which I show here. Moreover, he provided a "sponsor" for this sculpture. Through his mediation Mr. H.E. Levert donated the necessary 9,375 guilders which Vreugde asked for the execution. G.B. Hooijer, a man to be remembered once again with reverence and respect.
