EDITORS COMMENTS
Rue du Noyer, Schaerbeek, Brussels, Belgium (circa 1910): A captivating snapshot of daily life in the Schaerbeek district of Brussels, Belgium, during the early 20th century. The photograph, taken around 1910, depicts a bustling corner at the crossroads of Rue du Noyer and an unnamed street. The quaint cobblestone road is lined with beautiful, large buildings, their facades adorned with intricate details and ornate decorations. On the right side of the image, a man in a hat and coat stands next to a car that appears to be experiencing some trouble. The vehicle's hood is raised, and a few onlookers have gathered around, likely offering assistance or sharing their advice. The car's distress seems to have momentarily disrupted the flow of foot traffic, as pedestrians pause to observe the scene. In the background, a horse-drawn carriage passes by, while a streetcar, adorned with the Hoffmann logo, glides along the tramlines on the left side of the street. The patisserie on the corner, with its inviting display of pastries and bread, adds to the vibrant atmosphere of the scene. The Rue du Noyer, with its rich architectural heritage and lively street life, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the unique character and charm of Brussels during this era.
