Framed Print of Burning of the House of Representatives at Brussels, 1883. Creator: Unknown
Burning of the House of Representatives at Brussels, 1883. The "Palace of the Nation", containing the Chambers of the Belgian Senate and Assembly of Representatives, was partially destroyed by fire...The Chamber of Representatives was entirely consumed, together with the Parliamentary Library; but that part of the building which is occupied by the Senate was preserved. The fire broke out towards five in the afternoon, about the time when the sitting of the Chamber was adjourned for the day. It is believed to have originated with the gas-burner in the cupola overhead...the fire was not subdued till midnight. Two of the firemen were killed, and seven were injured...The "Palais de la Nation"...was erected in the last century, under the Austrian Government of these provinces, by the Empress Maria Theresa, for the assemblies of the old Council of Brabant; and it was the Palais des Etats Généraux from 1817 to 1830...The loss of the library, which contained 125, 000 volumes, and many valuable records, is...much deplored'. From "Illustrated London News", 1883. Heritage Images features heritage image collections. © The Print Collector/Heritage Images
