Rubenshuis

The House of Rubens

“In a side-street (named ‘Wapper’) of the Meir avenue stands the former house of Peter Paul Rubens, the greatest and most famous of all the Antwerp painters. Rubens bought an existing 16th century house here, after he had returned from his stay in Italy (1600-1608). He lived in the house from 1616 onwards and died here in 1640.
Rubens had it embellished and turned it into one of the most elegant Renaissance-Baroque Houses of the Low Countries, with a beautiful restyled garden and an impressive entrance. It was here that most of his splendid Baroque paintings were created. Diplomats, artists, art lovers and collectors, scientists and even the Spanish Archdukes Albert and Isabella visited him here. It was also here that his first wife Isabella Brant and his daughter died.”

Duh!?

Home of Captain Marvel!

“Life in Fawcett City seems a step backward in time. Architecture is unchanged since the 1940s, Fashion follows suit, and the sheer number of vintage cars and replicas makes anything more modern seem out of place. Its also got an unusually high number of non-damaging lightning strikes.”
