Royal Museum of Fine Arts

Gustaf Wappers (1803-1874)
Episode of the September Days 1830, on the Grand Place of Brussels 1835

The year 1830 was marked by revolutionary fervor. Paris went through the July revolution, which marked the end of the rule of Charles X. Delacroix painted Liberty Leading the People. Brussels, for its part, had its September Days, which ended Dutch rule over the southern provinces, imposed at the 1815 Congress of Vienna. Gustaf Weppers created his Episode of September Days 1830… in 1835. This work is one of the symbols of the revolution and independence of the Belgian nation.

Some works of art that left strong impression on me (Bakhuizen, Verlat, Portaels, Rubens):

Music Instruments Museum

I have enjoyed seeing hundreds of different music instruments as well as listening to some of them. This museum is or sure one of the biggest in the world of this type, occupying around 3000 m2 at four exhibition levels. I have even found some Serbian instruments and photo from 1976 showing Serbian trio (Zivko Kumric, Dragisa Radojevic and Dragisa Trifunovic). Take a look at the following pics:
