EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the breathtaking Illumination of the Brussels City Hall on 26 September 1864. The occasion was none other than the anniversary of the heroic battle that liberated Belgium from Dutch domination. The image, originally a sketch by M. D. A. , was later engraved in "The Illustrous Universe" in 1864 and now resides in a private collection. The scene depicted is nothing short of mesmerizing. The grandeur of the Brussels City Hall is illuminated with an array of vibrant colors, casting a magical glow upon its magnificent architecture. This historic building stands as a symbol of resilience and triumph for the Belgian people. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported back to that momentous evening when citizens gathered to celebrate their hard-fought freedom. The atmosphere must have been electric, filled with joy and pride as they commemorated their victory over oppression. The artist's skillful engraving brings every detail to life, capturing not only the beauty of this architectural masterpiece but also evoking emotions tied to national identity and unity. It serves as a reminder that history is not just about dates and events; it is about human stories and shared experiences. This print serves as both a historical document and an artistic expression, reminding us of our collective past while inspiring us to continue striving for liberty and justice.
