Biography

Franciscus Henricus Van Dijk[1] was born in 1853 in Berchem, a southern district and municipality of Antwerp.[2][3] He was an apprentice, trainee and collaborator of architect Шаблон:Ill from 1870 to 1881. Van Dijk was a jury member for the Prix de Rome (Architecture Department) from 1893 to 1901, and professor of architecture at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of Antwerp from 1902 until 1923.

In the 1880s he designed the Royal Museum of Fine Arts of Antwerp with Jean-Jacques Winders.[4] In 1890, he made the first designs for the Sugar Refinery Peten.[5] As part of his early oeuvre, he restored the Spaengien on the Grote Markt of Antwerp between 1892 and 1893.[6] In 1899 he designed the neo-Baroque Grand Hôtel Métropole on Leysstraat in Antwerp, which is an example of his mature oeuvre.[7] In 1901, Van Dijk was commissioned the ensemble De Biekens in Cogels-Osylei in Berchem by the Naamlooze Maatschappij voor het Bouwen van Burgershuizen of the Oostkwartier.[8] Van Dijk built several mansions in Cogels-Osylei, including Scaldis, an eclectic group of houses, and Baldwin Iron Arm, some of the most notable houses in Zurenborg.[9][5] Since the 1880s, Van Dijk also completed several works in the Neoclassical style across Antwerp.[10][11] He designed the Saint Michael and Saint Peter's Church, built between 1893 and 1897 in Antwerp with a nave with columns of Vånevik granite from the Kalmar coast.[12]

Between 1903 and 1904, he built the De Spieghel on the Grote Markt of Antwerp in neo-Gothic style.[13] The building, first mentioned in the 14th century, was completely demolished by the owner Eugène Kreglinger and rebuilt according to a design by Van Dijk and Michel De Braey.[13] In 1906, he rebuilt the Den Arend, also in neo-Gothic style and on Antwerp's Grote Markt.[14] The same year he realized the eclectic ensemble De Twaalf Apostelen ("The Twelve Apostles") on Transvaalstraat in Berchem[15] and made a design for Villa Cleibs in Schoten.[16] In 1909 he was commissioned a mansion on Jan Van Rijswijcklaan by Eugeen Coveliers, which was designed in Neo-Louis XVI style.[17]

Frans Van Dijk and his son Henri (also an architect) are buried in the Antwerp cemetery Schoonselhof (Hoboken), on perk 4 (South side).[3]
