EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Bert Underwood showcases a group of three stereograph views of Belgium, captured between the 1890s and 1910s. The first image portrays the magnificent Town Hall, adorned with splendid sculptures that exude grandeur and architectural finesse. Its Gothic design stands as a testament to Belgium's rich heritage and artistic prowess. The second view captures the essence of young Belgians in their contemporary attire, providing a glimpse into the fashion trends of that era. Their clothes reflect both tradition and modernity, creating a fascinating contrast against the backdrop of Louvain's bustling streets. Underwood masterfully captures the vibrant atmosphere of this Flemish city through his lens. The third photograph reveals an outdoor scene teeming with life - children playing amidst a crowd while adults go about their daily routines. This snapshot encapsulates the spirit of Belgian society at that time – dynamic, diverse, and full of energy. As an albumen silver print from the late 19th century, this piece represents not only Underwood's skillful photography but also serves as a historical artifact documenting Belgium's cultural landscape during this period. Preserved within its black-and-white tones lies an immersive experience for viewers to explore Leuven's streetscapes and immerse themselves in its unique charm. Displayed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, these stereographic cards offer us a window into history – inviting us to travel back in time and witness firsthand how people lived in early 20th-century Belgium.
