  • 1910 Brussels International Exhibition
    1910 Brussels International Exhibition Belgium’s 5th such event confirmed her position as a major host of international events. Staged thirteen years after the previous Brussels Expo (5 years after that in Liège), and a year after the London international exhibition at which Belgium had a large pavilion, this fair revealed the government’s heavy commitment to international display. King Albert was patron and le Comte de Smet de Naeyer, minister of finance and public works, oversaw his department’s involvement in its construction. Major participants were France, Holland, UK & Ireland, Russia, Germany, Brazil, Spain & Italy. A pavilion for all other nations was erected, in which they put up stands. In all fewer nations attended than previous exhibitions. The exhibition opened on 23 April and closed during November. Some 13,000,000 people attended but the fair lost some 10,000 BEF. About 9 pm on the evening of Sunday 14 August, a fire broke out, but apart from the animals in the zoo being killed by smoke and heat, nobody was killed, as the public had already gone home. The fire broke out near the central gallery and quickly spread to the British section, the city of Paris pavilion and a French restaurant. After several hours the fire was brought under control, the rest of the site escaping damage. The remaining British industrial exhibits were relocated in the Salle des Fêtes. The fire greatly stimulated people’s curiosity to see the exhibition. The exhibition was sited in the Solbosch park, near the Bois de la Cambre at the outer end of the Avenue Louise in.

The J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles (Courtesy of the J. Paul Getty Museum) HNA Newsletter, Vol. 23, No. 2, November 2006 1 From the President In Memoriam I begin this brief editorial on a sad note: I recently learned of the death this past July of our colleague, Cynthia Lawrence, after an extremely lengthy and exhausting battle with cancer. To those of us who knew her, we fondly remember a first-rate scholar and, more importantly, a first-rate person who enriched the lives of all of us who were fortunate enough to have befriended her. She will be sorely missed. Please be sure to read the obituary that our colleague, Barbara Haeger, prepared especially for this issue of the Newsletter. I have recently returned to teaching and administrative duties here at Syracuse University after having enjoyed a sabbatical during the 2005-06 academic year. Despite the added work loads and constraints on my already limited time, this re-entry into academe has been thoroughly enjoyable. Instead of spending the entire year myopically focused on the topic of my own research – Hendrick ter Brugghen – my renewed responsibilities have forced me to think in much broader terms about our discipline, more specifically, about the various fields in which our membership curates, teaches, and writes.

  • 1897 Brussels International Exhibition
    1897 Brussels International Exhibition Due to its prosperity, Belgium wished to prove it could compete with the big powers economically. Belgium then exported one third of its production, more than either France or UK. This placed it fifth among world powers in terms of commerce. Ori ginally there was some concern that this exhibition, preceding the 1900 one in Paris, may not succeed. Construction was delayed by torrential rains, which postponed the opening from 24 April to 10 May. During the first few weeks, the fountains did not have circulating water, nor was the electric lighting completed. Located in the pare du Centenaire, there was also a colonial affairs exhibition at Terveuren in the Museum of African Art. Although there was little significant architecture at this exhibition, a 1 reconstruction of an old Brussels quarter called Brussels-Kermesse, surrounded by a 4 h century wall and with a Renaissance entry gate, attracted much interest. This project, designed by Pau l Saintenoy, was inspired by Ghent and Audenarde city halls. The belfry of the carillon tower (4m dia x 37 m tall) was the finest piece of architecture in the exhibition. Three famous Brussels statues were reproduced; Manneken-pis, Le Cracheur (the spitter) and Les Trois Pucelles (three virgins). At night, the lighting provided a clear view of the luminous Fountain of Chimeras by Van der Stapen. The jewel of the Exhibition, according to the government was the array of French exhibits, which 2 2 spread over 1S ,000 m . That from the UK covered 6,SOO m . For the first time at such an exhibition, mathematics and natural sciences were organised into an autonomous international section.
