EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken between approximately 1890 and 1900, showcases the breathtaking view of Namur, Belgium's historic citadel and the bridges over the Meuse and Sambre rivers. The image, richly colored and imbued with a nostalgic charm, transports us back in time to the 19th century. The imposing citadel, perched atop a hill, stands as a testament to the city's long and storied history. Its grand walls and towering fortifications have withstood the test of time, bearing witness to countless battles and sieges. The rivers Meuse and Sambre, meandering gracefully through the landscape, add to the picturesque beauty of the scene. The bridges, with their intricate designs and ironwork, provide a vital connection between the old town and the surrounding areas. The Meuse Bridge, with its arched design, spans the Meuse river, while the Sambre Bridge, featuring a more modern suspension design, crosses the Sambre. Together, they form an essential part of Namur's infrastructure and have played a crucial role in the city's growth and development. This photograph, a beautiful example of photochrom printing, offers a unique glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the historical significance and visual allure of Namur during the 19th century. The image, with its rich colors and intricate details, invites us to explore the history and culture of this remarkable Belgian city.
