Comic Strip Museum III Photo

Photographer’s Note

This is a 3rd picture from the Comic Strip Museum in rue de Sables, Brussels. Here you see both the Rocket of Tintin and this Citroën 2CV in the same picture. The museum is not only well worth visiting because of the the history of Belgian comic strips. The museum is also housed in a masterpiece of Victor Horta, the most famous Belgian Art Nouveau architect. It was constructed in 1906 and was a wholesale warehouse for clothing. The owners of the warehouse were the Waucquez family. The glass ceiling and the illumination is very typical for the style of Horta.

Hello Ulf,

This is my favouritie in your serie of shot in this museum. The composition, the framing and the POV are very well selecetd. The red color of the two elements of Belgian comic-strips arise very well in the image. I like too the element of the interior architectur. Congratulations.
Have a nice evening,
Roger

Hi Ulf,

Excellent view of the hall with good details of the interior architecture. The light is great, nice colors and very good sharpness.

Greetings
Leonor

Hi Ulf,

Even from the thumbnail I could the rocket from “Kuifje – Raket naar de maan”.
I really do miss Bobby and captain Haddock here and of course his bottle of whisky.
Lovely picture full of memories.

Groet Rob

Bonsoir Ulf
Le musée Tintin c'est très intéressant
Il existe aussi un musée Tintin au château de Chevergny en Indre et Loire, Hergé s'est inspiré de ce château pour créer Moulinsart.0

AND now we have the two together. Your view from upstairs is excellent showing off the beautiful architecture. I particularly like the lamp. I'm sure the glass ceiling will feature in your gallery soon!!? ;D
