Stained Glass, Eglise de Notre-Dame Des Victoire

Stained Glass, Eglise de Notre-Dame Des Victoire
“Stained Glass, Eglise de Notre-Dame Des Victoire” — Columns and stained glass windows in the Eglise de Notre-Dame Des Victoire.

We came to the Eglise de Notre-Dame Des Victoire midway rhrough a very long walk in Brussels, last year. The idea was to go beyond the busy central old district where we were staying to see some other parts of the city. (That central district has a lot to offer, but it is not the whole of Brussels.) We came to the church, walked around it outside, then entered. We were almost the only people there, probably because it isn’t on the tourist map.

It is a beautiful church, full of light from its extensive and tall stained glass windows. In some ways it brought to mind La Chapelle of Paris, though here you could just walk into it. (Accessing La Chapelle is trickier due to its location and security concerns.) I made this photograph along one side of the church where morning light was gently streaming through those beautiful windows.
