Together with KBR\, he has created a remarkable museum route. Here you will discover original watercolours by Jean-Léon Huens\, presented alongside exceptional manuscripts\, prints and engravings from the KBR collections. \nThese documents illustrate Bart’s fascination with history and make the world of the Burgundian court tangible. For this route\, he wrote texts that capture the Burgundian origins of our shared history. \nThrough the eyes of a born storyteller\nThe watercolours of Jean-Léon Huens\, which he literally gazed at endlessly as a teenager\, sparked his love of history. Illustration no. 182\, Nancy\, planted a seed that years later would grow into The Burgundians: A Vanished Empire. Bart dreamed of seeing Huens’ original illustrations alongside the centuries-old treasures of KBR\, next to manuscripts once touched by Philip the Good and his contemporaries. Experience how small emotions and grand history meet\, and how imagination and the past merge in a single glance. \n\n \n Buy your ticket \n\n \n \n Discover the KBR museum \n\n \n  \nContinue your discovery in Brussels\nYour journey through the Burgundian world does not have to end at the KBR museum.
