Publisher Description: Images of the Grand Place by night, of exceptional quality, offering double page panoramic views Descriptive text by one of the most prominent historians in Brussels This splendid work presents the Grand Place in Brussels adorned with a thousand lights. Panoramic images allow the reader to fully appreciate the work of Patrick Rimoux, a sculptor in light; every detail of the facades is highlighted by virtue of the subtlety of the tones selected. The presentation of triptych images provides a magnificent overview; contrasting daytime scenes with views at night, gives a feel for the rhythm and 'life' of the Grand Place. Intelligent and accessible text complements the images and recounts the history of this cosmopolitan city and the Grand Place, within that. Text in English, French and Dutch. |
