The mausoleum of Léonce Evrard and his wife, Louise Flignot, stands as a deeply symbolic tribute in the Cimetière de Laeken in Brussels. Léonce, a skilled marble worker, was devastated by Louise’s loss and, in 1920, dedicated this unique chapel to her memory. Designed by architect George De Larabrie, the structure includes a striking sculpture of a mourner reaching toward a blank wall, capturing the profound themes of love and grief. One of the chapel’s most remarkable features emerges annually around the summer solstice. During this time, sunlight filters through the mausoleum in a way that forms the shape of a heart, symbolizing the enduring love between Léonce and Louise. This poetic phenomenon serves as a moving testament to their eternal connection. ° ° [ By [ @thishowthingswork ] 😍 ] ° ° Don’t forget to like, save and follow us. 🌿👍 -Follow: @alver.denizz 👈 -Follow: @lands.capearchitect Don’t forget to like, save and follow us ———————————————— Don’t forget to turn on post notifications ———————————————— Shop Our Special Collections ↓✨ archiwhimsy.com 👉Link on bio. @lands.capearchitect ———————————————— Disclaimer- We don’t intended any copyright (DM us for credit & removal ———————————————— 📍Hashtags 📍 ———————————————— #architecture #arch #archviz #archlovers #architect #archilovers #architecturephotography #archdaily #architecturelovers #architectural #archidaily #archdigest #architecturedesing #design #InteriorDesign #homedesing #graphicdesing #landscape #landscapephotography #landscapelovers #landscapedesign #landscapearchitecture #instagram #garden #lovers #love #gardendesign #archilovers
