I mentioned yesterday that some explanations will follow. You see the man and the bell in the right corner of the photo? That was my photo of yesterday. I also photographed a detail of the clock last year.However, I always ignored this bronze map under the arcade. What you see is the Carillon du Mont des Arts. Which if I understand corretly means the 'figurine clock of the arts hill'.
Why the figurine clock? Well as you can see, the clock has 12 figurines which dance every hour, on the hour. And 24 bells which represent different regions of Belgium. Why the arts hill? Because the region around the clock is known as the Mont des Arts, where you can find most of Brussels museums, congress and exhibiton places, and the royal library.
Bells, on top of the world. Anyone guess where this is (Brussels residents more than others)? Tomorrow more on this. 
Going to the movies anyone? 
Amadeus, Amadeus. Another wonderful sign.

Part of the 'Vous Etes Ici' expo (see posts of Monday and Tuesday) were a collection of stamps with imprints of Brussels sights. Look out tomorrow for my little piece of art dedicated to you all (my readers and visitors).

Reviens. Help mon amour. Ton petit Rimbault.
As mentioned yesterday, now the door at no. 19. Again an Art Nouveau style door, with wonderful details on the door and above.
A very sunny shot, I must admit. However I wanted to show you this door, part of a series of two. Built in an art nouveau style this door can be found in Ixelles, close to the 
Something different for today. I keep writing about the diversity of Brussels, but rarely photograph it. Here an example: the Russian Orthodox Church in Uccle.

In the mini series of signs, I came across this one: Arret du Tram/ Tramhalte. Which means 'Tram Stop'. Probably a signed used in the old days, when trams were a modern highlight to the city. 
Who's there? Another door around Brussels.
Just a very red tram. I so happened to be waiting for my own 
I know you will wonder what this is. 
I am going to cheat. Well not cheat, cheat but show you men at work (the theme for today, 1 March 2007), but not at work in Brussels. As I have been abroad I did not get the chance to photograph men at work in Brussels so I opted for two men at work in the ... Vatican!
