Hendrik Petrus Berlage, Amsterdam, February 12 1856 — The Hague August 12 1934, was a prominent Dutch architect. After failing the entrance exam to art school, he took architecture at the Zürich Institute of Technology under Gottfried Semper from 1875 until 1878.
Berlage's most important work, the Commodities Exchange in Amsterdam, is often considered to be the start of modern architecture in the Netherlands.
Some of most famous works include:
- the Amsterdam Commodities Exchange
- the Berlage brug (bridge) in Amsterdam
- the St. Hubertusslot part of the Kröller-Müller Museum.
