EDITORS COMMENTS
On August 4th and 5th, 1910, an unfortunate incident occurred at the Brussels Exhibition in Kermesse. A significant fire broke out at the Central Gallery, and the flames quickly spread, engulfing several pavilions in their path. The cause of the fire remains unknown, but the damage was extensive, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake. The photograph captures the aftermath of the disaster, with the charred remains of the exhibition's structures visible in the background. The new frontage of the Brussels Exhibition, designed by M. Acker, can be seen in the foreground, a symbol of resilience and renewal. The intricate details of the new exterior, with its ornate columns and decorative motifs, stand in stark contrast to the destruction that had recently taken place. The Brussels Exhibition in Kermesse was a popular attraction, drawing visitors from all corners of the world. The loss of the pavilions was a blow to the organizers and attendees alike. However, the determination to rebuild and restore the exhibition to its former glory was unwavering. The new frontage, with its elegant design and grandeur, served as a reminder of the enduring spirit of the exhibition and the community that supported it. The photograph, taken in September 1910, provides a glimpse into the past, offering a poignant reminder of the challenges that come with progress and the importance of perseverance in the face of adversity.
