KMSKB (Art Museum Brussels, 4-9-2005)

Rating:★★★★★

Still one of my favorite art museums for many reasons:
- it's a nice big labyrinth of a building
- it has art from the 15th to the 21th century
- it has had and will have some interesting exhibitions
- it used to have very nice desserts in the restaurant (haven't been there recently)
- it has the biggest person elevator I've ever seen, with chairs!
- it's in Brussels

This was another free visit so we went to see an exhibit (drawings from Rembrandt and his pupils; nice but very small exhibit) and some highlights in the 15/16th century section (we have recently been to the 20th century and the 19th was closed). The highlights in this section include: Memling, Van der Weyden, Bouts, Bosch, Bruegel (see pic)...

The museumsite has a nice database with info and pics for most of their collection:
