The Royal Palace of Laeken, Brussels, destroyed by fire: the Dining-Room, 1890. 'On New Year's Day...a fire, accidentally caused, broke out in the Royal Palace...which was entirely destroyed...The entrance to the Palace, the grand vestibule, adorned with fine bas-reliefs, the State dining-room, the King's private room, and the conservatory are shown in our Illustrations... The Palace building consisted of two wings joined by a colonnade above which rose a large cupola; the ground floor of the left wing contained the Queen's apartments, and the King's apartments were on the first floor: in the right wing, on the ground floor, were the Salle des Gobelins, adorned with fine tapestry, the Salle des Maréchaux, and a room formerly reserved for the late Crown Prince Rudolph of Austria, as a frequent visitor to the Belgian Royal family...We are indebted to a correspondent, Mr. F. Watkins, for the Sketches we have engraved'. From "Illustrated London News", 1890.
