In the drawin, in the middle of the two towers, the french and german title: 'Banque Belge' - ' Belgisch Bank'. Splendid bank project, in a modernist style. The monumental facade and two perspectives of architectural and decorative details are depicted. The grandeur of the building is highlighted by the immense colonnade that adorns the facade: the columns give a character of stability to the building so that the architecture inspires trust and safety to the public, as indicated in the inscription in large letters.Emile Delepierre, architect from Tournai, 1910-1983, created several important buildings in Tournai, first in the Art Deco style, then in the Modernist style. he was particularly versed in the "paquebot" style, characteristic of large public complexes. The city of Tournai consecrated a major exhibition in 2018 to its major architects, including Delepierre in the foreground.Modernist architecture appeared in Belgium in 1919 and developed in the 1920s and 1930s. The Institut Saint-Luc de Tournai was founded in 1878 as a drawing school: in the 20th century it became a major school of architecture; in 1936 it had 500 students.

EUSEBI ARNAU MASCORT (Barcelona, 1864 - 1933) for MASRIERA Y CARRERAS. Paperweight "Ninfa", ca. 1905. Bronze on veined marble base. Signed with anagram by the author. Masriera y Carreras stamp on one side. Measurements: 9 x 5 x 8 cm (sculpture); 1,5 x 8 x 9 cm (base). The sculptor Eusebi Arnau was formed in the School of Fine Arts of Barcelona, and was a disciple of José Gamot. From 1887 he continued his studies in Rome, thanks to a scholarship from the School of La Lonja. Later he extended his training at the Julian Academy in Paris, exhibiting his works at the Salon of the French capital in 1895 and 1902. Later he opened his own workshop in Barcelona, where he had disciples such as Pablo Gargallo and Josep Dunyach. Arnau will carry out numerous commissions, such as the altarpiece of the basilica church of Santa Engracia in Zaragoza, where he worked with Josep Llimona. On the other hand, his sculptures applied to architecture made him stand out as a modernist sculptor. Some examples are those made for the Lleó Morera and Amatller houses, the Hotel España, the Palacio de la Música Catalana and the Hospital de San Pablo, all in Barcelona. He was also a regular collaborator of the architect Enric Sagnier Villavecchia, with whom he worked on the Customs building of the Port of Barcelona, the Ruper Garriga House, the Via Crucis of Montserrat, the Expiatory Temple of the Sacred Heart, the parish of the Sacred Heart of Poblenou, the agency of the Caixa de Pensions in Reus and other projects. He also excelled as a medal maker, producing, among others, the medal of the Universal Exposition of Barcelona in 1888, the Catalan Solidarity medal, the Columbus Centenary medal and the commemorative medal for the demolition of the walls of Barcelona. Throughout his life, Arnau took part in numerous exhibitions in Spain, Chicago, Mexico City and Paris. He was awarded a bronze medal at the Universal Exposition of Barcelona in 1888, an honorary diploma at the Fine Arts Exposition of the same city in 1891, and a prize at the 1896 Exposition; honorary mention in sculpture at the National Exposition of Madrid in 1899, first class medal in decorative arts at the National Exposition of 1908, gold medal of the Artistic Circle of Barcelona at the International Art Exposition of 1911, and third class medal at the National Exposition of 1912. Currently we can find public monuments by Arnau in Barcelona, Madrid and Villafranca, and other works by him in Barcelona, Comillas and Zaragoza. He is also represented in the National Art Museum of Catalonia.

CANDIDA HÖFER (Germany, 1944). "Deutsche Oper am Rhein Düsseldorf," 2012. Photograph, c-print, copy 97/100. Signed and numbered on the back. Measurements: 30 x 45.5 cm; 48 x 63 cm (frame). "Deutsch Oper am Rhein Düsseldorf" is part of a project called "In Portugal", which the artist realized between 2005 and 2006. The series consists of a selection of photographs taken in public places throughout the country. Characteristic of Candida Höfer, the artist has photographed empty interiors of libraries, museums, palaces and theaters, focusing on cultural spaces free of human presence. The self-imposed thematic constraints evident in her project are both cultural and formal in nature. The baroque, modern and contemporary interiors that Höfer captures through her lens offer a "formal portrait of the social itself," as it has been defined in Europe since the Enlightenment. Candida Höfer began her career in 1968 working as a portrait photographer for various newspapers and, from 1970, as an assistant to Werner Bokelberg. Later, between 1973 and 1982, she attended the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf, first studying film with Ole John, and later photography with Bernd Becher. Together with Thomas Ruff, Höfe was Becher's first student to use color photography, showing her work in slide form. She began making her famous interiors of public buildings in 1979, still during her student period. Eventually fame would come to him thanks to his series of photographs focusing on the lives of immigrant workers in Germany. Höfer's work is part of the tradition of German photographers directly inherited from the conceptual aesthetics and the teachings of Bernd and Hilla Becher from the Kunstakademie in Düsseldorf, who readapted the original project of the New Objectivity to adopt a unique way of facing the world. Following the working method initiated by their teachers, their photographs show an almost ethnographic interest in the multiplicity of forms of representation of contemporary culture, relating in a very particular way to the scenarios where society moves and knowledge develops. Höfer's are interiors of buildings, preferably for public use such as museums, churches, theaters or opera houses, archives and libraries, which are photographed when they have ceased all activity and are empty. Specializing in large formats, her photographs are taken from a classic frontal angle, or they seek a sharp diagonal that organizes the composition. The artist tends to photograph her scenes from a high viewpoint, so that the wall in the background is centered in relation to the final image. She held her first solo exhibition in 1975 at the Konrad Fischer Gallery in Düsseldorf. Since then, Höfer's work has been exhibited in leading museums around the world, such as the Kunsthalle in Basel, Hamburg and Bern, the Louvre in Paris, the Portikus in Frankfurt am Main, the MoMA in New York, the Power Plant in Toronto, the Kunsthaus in Bregenz, the Ludwig Museum in Cologne or, in our country, at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Vigo. Likewise, in 2002 he participated in Documenta 11, and in 2003 he represented Germany at the Venice Biennale, together with Martin Kippenberger. On the other hand, between 1997 and 2000 she combined her artistic practice with teaching, which she did at the Hochschule für Gestaltung in Karlsruhe. She is currently represented at the Guggenheim Museum in New York, the Hamburger Banhof in Berlin, the Kunsthalle in Nuremberg, the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Trento, the Museum of Contemporary Photography at Columbia College in Chicago, the Fundación Telefónica in Madrid and the Philadelphia Museum of Art, among other public and private collections.
