EDITORS COMMENTS
The Cathedral of St. Michael and St. Gudula, located in the heart of Brussels, Belgium, is a stunning example of Roman Catholic architecture from the 1910s. This beautiful image, color tinted for enhanced visual appeal, showcases the western facade of the cathedral with its three portals, each surmounted by intricately carved gables. The two towers, rising majestically from the facade, are characteristic of the French Gothic style, yet the cathedral deviates from the traditional design with the absence of a rose window. Instead, a large Brabantian Gothic style window graces the facade, adding a unique touch to this architectural masterpiece. The cathedral was granted Cathedral status in 1962, making it an important religious site in Brussels and a must-visit destination for tourists and locals alike. This image, from The Roseries Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, transports us back in time to the early 20th century, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and grandeur of this historic place of worship.
