Tropenmuseum

Tropenmuseum is a museum in Amsterdam, completed in 1926, notable for its design and setting. It is associated with Johannes Jacobus van Nieukerken and Marie Adrianus van Nieukerken, and the project reflects a considered approach to form, materials, and use. In practical terms, The Tropenmuseum, an ethnographic museum, accommodates eight permanent exhibitions and an ongoing series of temporary exhibitions, including modern and traditional visual arts and photographic works. Overall, The Tropenmuseum is part of the Nationaal Museum van Wereldculturen (Museum of World Cultures), a combination of three ethnographic museums in the Netherlands.
