Gresham Life Assurance
London 1848. It seems that Gresham Life Assurance was at that time based in Brussels as well. Today this Art Nouveau hotel ancien belongs to the Musees des Beaux Arts. Really beautiful and worth a glance.

Les Hiboux
A fragment of the entrance to a house called 'Les Hiboux' (the owls). Somehow I will have to try and take a photo of the whole hose, as the windows imitates the owls eyes. A very interesting Art Nouveau house built by Edouard Pelseneer.
