EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by Alphonse Asselbergs that beautifully captures the essence of life along the canal in Belgium's capital city. The artist skillfully depicts a bustling scene filled with boats and activity, showcasing the importance of water transport during this era. The painting showcases an array of boats gracefully gliding through the calm waters of the canal. Each vessel tells its own story - from small rowboats to larger passenger ships, all playing their part in connecting people and goods across Brussels. The vibrant colors used by Asselbergs bring this lively scene to life, evoking a sense of movement and energy. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back to 19th-century Brussels, where canals served as vital arteries for trade and transportation.
