Art in Belgium

[hellodear]

Contributions to painting and architecture have been especially rich. The Mosan art, the Early Netherlandish, the Flemish Renaissance and Baroque painting and major examples of Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque architecture are milestones in the history of art in Belgium.

[hellodear]

Mosan art or Rheno–Mosan art is a regional style of Romanesque art from the valleys of the Meuse and Rhine, in present-day Belgium, especially in Wallonia, and the Rhineland, with manuscript illumination, metalwork, and enamel work from the 11th, 12th and 13th centuries.
Mosan art examples.
The Stavelot Triptych is a medieval reliquary intended to protect, honor and display pieces of the True Cross. Created by Mosan artists—"Mosan" signifies the valley of the Meuse River— around 1156 at Stavelot Abbey in present-day Belgium.

All cities of art in Belgium have sufficient diversity and quality 'in house', to provide you with an agreeable stay. What's more, this not only applies to museums and monuments. After a visit to the museum, the enjoyment of a delicious meal with a glass of wine or Belgian beer in one of the many restaurants, is a must. When in Antwerp,you can afterwards take a trip in a horse-drawn carriage through the old city centre.

Op zaterdag 7 augustus kun je ’s nachts rondsluipen in de musea in Antwerpen. Het wordt een ware ontdekkingsreis door de tijd. Een zuiderse wind blaast op maar liefst 16 locaties de deuren open. Pak je koffers, want bij het vallen van de schemering nemen de musea je mee op reis.
In het FoMu kun je de tentoonstelling 'Reizen in de collectie: de opkomst van het massatoerisme in België' bekijken. Studio Chez Jacky is net zoals vorig jaar weer van de partij. Kies je perfecte reisoutfit uit en poseer voor een kiekje in de studio.
