EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph print, titled "Entree Du Beguinage" by an unidentified artist, captures the enchanting entrance to the Diksmuide Beguinage in Belgium around 1920. The image showcases a front garden meticulously designed with vibrant flower beds and lush patches of lawn, separated by a charming cobblestone pathway. The Beguinage, originally a Gothic church dating back to 1434, was tragically destroyed during the First World War. However, the resilient community rebuilt the historic site with unwavering dedication, restoring it to its former glory in every detail. The serene and picturesque scene depicted in this photograph is a testament to the enduring charm of the Diksmuide Beguinage. The colorful blossoms and meticulously maintained garden offer a sense of tranquility and beauty, inviting visitors to explore the rich history and spiritual significance of this remarkable place. This photograph is taken from the December 1920 issue of a Belgian color magazine, volume 13, and features the work of the talented artist Ketty Gilsoul Hoppe. The image is a precious piece of history, offering a glimpse into the past and the resilience of the people of Diksmuide in the aftermath of war.
