= Jan Cornelis Bander was a drawing master at the Teekenschool and at the Ambachtsschool in Edam. He and his wife, Leonie Bander-Lutomirski, moved to Edam in 1911 and made many drawings in Edam, Volendam and surroundings. The sketchbooks contain many portraits (i.a. of a young child and a reading lady) but also show that occas. they took trips to other parts of Holland and even Germany. The largest sketchbook contains many pencil/ pen drawings and watercolours of (details of) buildings with annots. identifying the buildings, i.a. "Frankische kapel (Falkhof) Nijmegen", "Keizerzaal in den toren der St. Servaas kerk te Maastricht", "Domkerk te Spiers van het noordoosten" (pen and ink and watercolour), and on 1 leaf: "Kerk te Riddagshausen van het noordoosten" and "Kerk int Wang (Thans in Silezië)" (both pen and inkw. watercolour). Among the separate drawings are 2 small designs by Bandr's wife, one (unsigned) for the frontcover of Alie Smeding's book Het prinsesje van het groene eiland.
