This house was built by Victor Horta in 1894 for his friend, a lawyer named Frison, but today it serves as a Galerie d'Art. Appropriately enough, for its magnificent lines and features include a glass gallery that allows light to flood right into the heart of the edifice. The hand of the master can be identified in several of its wonderful details, and although it is a building dating back to the very beginning of Horta's career, one can instantly recognise the sober elegance so typical of the architect's work, and the qualities of harmony and continuity, rationality and novelty that granted the building its artistic worth.
