The Royal Palace of Laeken, Brussels, destroyed by fire: the King's private 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.
