Il pourrait s\u2019agir de ce que Hubert et Jan voyaient \u00E0 travers leur fen\u00EAtre depuis le 2e \u00E9tage : une rue avec une forteresse \u00E0 l\u2019angle du c\u00F4t\u00E9 droit, une chapelle derri\u00E8re celle-ci et, au loin, des maisons en bois et une porte de la ville.

Le peintre n\u2019aurait donc pas repr\u00E9sent\u00E9 exactement ce qu\u2019il voyait, mais il s\u2019en serait inspir\u00E9.</span></span></span></p>\n\n<p><span><span><span><em>Allez jusqu\u2019au bout de la Gouvernementstraat (vous arrivez \u00E0 la cath\u00E9drale) et prenez la Limburgstraat \u00E0 droite.</em></span></span></span></p></div>\n \n </div>\n\n <div class=\"paragraph paragraph--type--text paragraph--view-mode--full\">\n \n <div class=\"field field--name-field-heading field--type-heading field--label-hidden field__item\"><h2>Maaseikplein : statue des fr\u00E8res Van Eyck</h2>\n</div>\n \n <div class=\"clearfix text-formatted field field--name-field-text field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item\"><p><span><span><span>Cette statue des fr\u00E8res Van Eyck a \u00E9t\u00E9 con\u00E7ue par le jeune sculpteur gantois Geo Verbanck et l\u2019architecte Valentin Vaerwyck en 1913, \u00E0 l\u2019occasion de l\u2019exposition universelle.

Afin que la sculpture semble compl\u00E8te, le groupe de statues de gauche a \u00E9t\u00E9 remplac\u00E9 par une version en pl\u00E2tre qui avait \u00E9t\u00E9 peinte en couleur bronze.</span></span></span></p>\n\n<p><span><span><span>Pour le financement de la statue, il a \u00E9t\u00E9 fait appel \u00E0 des pays qui participaient \u00E0 l\u2019exposition universelle et \u00E0 des villes qui avaient un lien avec Jan Van Eyck.

Ce n\u2019est qu\u2019en 1540, apr\u00E8s que l\u2019empereur Charles Quint fit d\u00E9molir l\u2019abbaye Saint-Bavon pour y \u00E9riger un ch\u00E2teau espagnol, que l\u2019\u00E9glise se vit attribuer un nouveau saint-patron : Saint-Bavon. Lorsque Gand devint un \u00E9v\u00EAch\u00E9 en 1559, l\u2019\u00E9glise Saint-Bavon devint la <a href=\"https://visit.gent.be/fr/voir-et-faire/la-cathedrale-saint-bavon\">cath\u00E9drale Saint-Bavon</a>. </span></span></span></p>\n\n<p><span><span><span>Aujourd\u2019hui encore, Saint-Bavon est la demeure de l\u2019Agneau mystique. \u00C0 l\u2019origine, il \u00E9tait suspendu dans la <em>Vijdkapel</em>, la 1e chapelle derri\u00E8re le ch\u0153ur. En 1934, deux panneaux ont \u00E9t\u00E9 vol\u00E9s : les Juges int\u00E8gres et la grisaille de Saint-Jean-Baptiste. Le second a \u00E9t\u00E9 retrouv\u00E9, mais celui des Juges reste introuvable. Chaque ann\u00E9e naissent de nouvelles l\u00E9gendes urbaines \u00E0 propos de l\u2019endroit suppos\u00E9 o\u00F9 le panneau serait cach\u00E9. Pour une meilleure conservation du triptyque, celui-ci a d\u00E9m\u00E9nag\u00E9 vers la <em>doopkapel</em> \u00E0 l\u2019avant de la cath\u00E9drale, du c\u00F4t\u00E9 gauche.

Y es que la palabra latina <em>cultura</em>, de la que se deriva el nombre de esta plaza, significa \u201Ctierras de cultivo\u201D. A lo largo de su historia, esta plaza siempre ha gozado de cierto prestigio. En el siglo XVII era el lugar de paseo predilecto de la burgues\u00EDa gantesa. Para ellos se construy\u00F3 el quiosco del centro de la plaza as\u00ED como la \u00D3pera. Pero ya era un lugar de ocio mucho antes de eso. En la plaza hab\u00EDa una \u201Crollebane\u201D (una especie de bolera), se organizaban concursos de \u201Ctiro de oca\u201D un cruel deporte popular durante las ferias, y se encontraba tambi\u00E9n un juego de tiro con arco del gremio de San Sebasti\u00E1n, el gremio de los arqueros.</span></span></span></p>\n\n<p><span><span><span>Cuando, en el a\u00F1o 1772, Toontje Verstuyft mont\u00F3 un puestecillo de flores cerca de la plaza Kouter, nunca podr\u00EDa haber imaginado que su iniciativa tendr\u00EDa tanto \u00E9xito. A d\u00EDa de hoy, los comerciantes de flores ganteses siguen entregando cada a\u00F1o un premio que lleva su nombre.</span></span></span></p>\n\n<p><span><span><span>En la plaza podemos encontrar 18 hojas de bronce de la artista estadounidense Jessica Diamond. Cada una de ellas hace referencia a la flora representada en el retablo del Cordero M\u00EDstico.\u00BFEs usted capaz de identificar las hojas? No hace falta ser un experto en bot\u00E1nica: cada hoja lleva una inscripci\u00F3n con su nombre en neerland\u00E9s medieval.</span></span></span></p>\n\n<p><span><span><span><em>Prosiga su ruta hasta llegar a la plaza Vogelmarkt, y det\u00E9ngase en la esquina de la calle Koestraat.</em></span></span></span></p></div>\n \n </div>\n\n <div class=\"paragraph paragraph--type--image paragraph--view-mode--full\">\n <figure>\n \n <div class=\"field field--name-field-media-image field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__item\">\n\n<div>\n \n <div class=\"field field--name-field-media-image field--type-image-with-copyright field--label-hidden field__item\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" data-copyright=\"\u00A9VisitGent\" title=\"\u00A9VisitGent\" src=\"/sites/default/files/styles/paragraph_image/public/media/img/2021-02/browse%20%2814%29_0.jpg?itok=ZijjEyza\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" alt=\"Kouter\" class=\"image-style-paragraph-image\" loading=\"lazy\" />\n\n\n</div>\n \n </div>\n</div>\n \n <figcaption>\n <div class=\"field field--name-field-image-caption field--type-string field--label-hidden field__item\">Kouter</div>\n </figcaption>\n </figure>\n </div>\n\n <div class=\"paragraph paragraph--type--text paragraph--view-mode--full\">\n \n <div class=\"field field--name-field-heading field--type-heading field--label-hidden field__item\"><h2>Esquina de la plaza Vogelmarkt con la calle Koestraat</h2>\n</div>\n \n <div class=\"clearfix text-formatted field field--name-field-text field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item\"><p><span><span><span>F\u00EDjese en la fachada de la casa blanca que hace esquina con la calle Koestraat y la plaza Vogelmarkt. Podr\u00E1 observar dos relieves que representan a los hermanos Van Eyck.

La mayor\u00EDa de estos elementos desaparecieron hace tiempo, pero la capilla <em>wolweverskapel</em> (capilla de los tejedores de lana) a\u00FAn se puede visitar a d\u00EDa de hoy. Vaya a echar un vistazo en la tienda de la calle Kortedagsteeg 12. Sin embargo, la forma de las puertas de la ciudad que aparecen en el cuadro no se corresponde con la forma de la puerta Walpoort que se encontraba ah\u00ED en la \u00E9poca. Aunque no se trate de una representaci\u00F3n exacta de lo que ve\u00EDa, el pintor probablemente se inspir\u00F3 en dicha puerta.</span></span></span></p>\n\n<p><span><span><span><em>Tome la calle Gouvernementstraat y s\u00EDgala hasta el final (hasta llegar a la catedral).

No fue hasta el a\u00F1o 1540, despu\u00E9s de que Carlos V del Sacro Impero Romano Germ\u00E1nico ordenara la demolici\u00F3n de la abad\u00EDa de San Bav\u00F3n para construir un castillo espa\u00F1ol en su lugar, que la iglesia se vio atribuir un nuevo patr\u00F3n: San Bav\u00F3n. Cuando Gante se convirti\u00F3 en di\u00F3cesis en 1559, la iglesia de San Bav\u00F3n pas\u00F3 a ser la <a href=\"https://visit.gent.be/es/ver-y-hacer/la-majestuosa-catedral-de-san-bavon\">Catedral de San Bav\u00F3n</a><span><span>.</span></span> </span></span></span></p>\n\n<p><span><span><span>La Catedral de San Bav\u00F3n siempre ha sido y sigue siendo el hogar del Cordero M\u00EDstico. Originalmente, el retablo estaba expuesto en la capilla Vijdkapel, la primera capilla detr\u00E1s del coro, a mano derecha. En 1934, dos de sus paneles fueron robados: los Jueces Justos y la grisalla de San Juan Bautista. La grisalla de San Juan se recuper\u00F3, pero a d\u00EDa de hoy sigue sin haber rastro del panel de los Jueces Justos. Cada cierto tiempo surgen leyendas urbanas acerca del lugar donde supuestamente est\u00E1 escondido el panel. Para asegurar una mejor conservaci\u00F3n del tr\u00EDptico, este fue trasladado a la capilla <em>doopkapel</em> en la parte delantera de la catedral. Y en 2021 fue trasladado de nuevo, esta vez a la capilla del santo sacramento situada detr\u00E1s del coro, en el centro del nuevo centro de visitantes.</span></span></span></p>\n\n<p><span><span><span><em>Ahora, gire a la izquierda hacia la calle Lange Kruisstraat y ad\u00E9ntrese en el callej\u00F3n junto al restaurante \u2018De Abt\u2019, hasta encontrarse con un enorme mural en blanco y negro a mano derecha.</em></span></span></span></p></div>\n \n </div>\n\n <div class=\"paragraph paragraph--type--image paragraph--view-mode--full\">\n <figure>\n \n <div class=\"field field--name-field-media-image field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__item\">\n\n<div>\n \n <div class=\"field field--name-field-media-image field--type-image-with-copyright field--label-hidden field__item\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" data-copyright=\"\u00A9VisitGent\" title=\"\u00A9VisitGent\" src=\"/sites/default/files/styles/paragraph_image/public/media/img/2020-10/VisitReeks71-DT009310.jpg?itok=dJMfrK7l\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" alt=\"sint-baafsplein wandelen\" class=\"image-style-paragraph-image\" loading=\"lazy\" />\n\n\n</div>\n \n </div>\n</div>\n \n <figcaption>\n <div class=\"field field--name-field-image-caption field--type-string field--label-hidden field__item\">Sint-Baafsplein</div>\n </figcaption>\n </figure>\n </div>\n\n <div class=\"paragraph paragraph--type--text paragraph--view-mode--full\">\n \n <div class=\"field field--name-field-heading field--type-heading field--label-hidden field__item\"><h2>Callej\u00F3n Mageleinsteeg</h2>\n</div>\n \n <div class=\"clearfix text-formatted field field--name-field-text field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item\"><p><span><span><span>En la plaza hay una obra del artista callejero argentino Francisco Bosoletti.

Erst 1540, als Kaiser Karl V. die St.-Bavo-Abtei abrei\u00DFen lie\u00DF, um dort ein spanisches Schloss zu bauen, erhielt die Kirche einen neuen Schutzheiligen: den hl. Bavo. Als Gent 1559 ein Bistum wurde, wurde die St.-Bavo-Kirche in die <a href=\"https://visit.gent.be/de/staunen-erleben/die-majestaetische-st-bavo-kathedrale\">St.-Bavo-Kathedrale</a> umbenannt. </span></span></span></p>\n\n<p><span><span><span>Die St.-Bavo-Kathedrale ist auch heute noch das echte Zuhause des Genter Altars.

Die Tafel mit Johannes dem T\u00E4ufer wurde zur\u00FCckgefunden, die Gerechten Richter blieben verschwunden. Jedes Jahr gibt es neue <em>urban legends</em>, die angeblich beschreiben sollen, wo die Tafel versteckt wurde. Um das Triptychon besser konservieren zu k\u00F6nnen, wurde es in der Taufkapelle links vorne in der Kathedrale untergebracht. 2021 ist der Genter Altar erneut umgezogen: zur Heiligen Sakramentskapelle hinter dem Chor, in der Mitte des neuen Besucherzentrums.</span></span></span></p>\n\n<p><span><span><span><em>Biegen Sie jetzt nach links in die Lange Kruisstraat, neben Restaurant \u201EDe Abt\u201C gehen Sie in die Gasse bis Sie auf der rechten Seite ein meterhohes Schwarzwei\u00DFwandgem\u00E4lde sehen.</em></span></span></span></p></div>\n \n </div>\n\n <div class=\"paragraph paragraph--type--image paragraph--view-mode--full\">\n <figure>\n \n <div class=\"field field--name-field-media-image field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__item\">\n\n<div>\n \n <div class=\"field field--name-field-media-image field--type-image-with-copyright field--label-hidden field__item\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" data-copyright=\"\u00A9VisitGent\" title=\"\u00A9VisitGent\" src=\"/sites/default/files/styles/paragraph_image/public/media/img/2020-10/VisitReeks71-DT009310.jpg?itok=dJMfrK7l\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" alt=\"sint-baafsplein wandelen\" class=\"image-style-paragraph-image\" loading=\"lazy\" />\n\n\n</div>\n \n </div>\n</div>\n \n <figcaption>\n <div class=\"field field--name-field-image-caption field--type-string field--label-hidden field__item\">Sint-Baafsplein</div>\n </figcaption>\n </figure>\n </div>\n\n <div class=\"paragraph paragraph--type--text paragraph--view-mode--full\">\n \n <div class=\"field field--name-field-heading field--type-heading field--label-hidden field__item\"><h2>Mageleinsteeg</h2>\n</div>\n \n <div class=\"clearfix text-formatted field field--name-field-text field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item\"><p><span><span><span>Auf dem Platz prunkt ein Kunstwerk des argentinischen Streetart-K\u00FCnstlers Francisco Bosoletti.

In de 17de eeuw kwam de Gentse bourgeoisie hier graag flaneren. Het is voor hen dat hier een kiosk werd opgetrokken en dat de Opera werd gebouwd. Daarvoor was dit ook al d\u00E9 plaats voor ontspanning.

Je kan er reli\u00EBfs vinden van de gebroeders Van Eyck. Ook al is het niet meer het originele huis uit de 15e eeuw, het is wel de plaats waar de gebroeders van Eyck hoogstwaarschijnlijk hun Gents atelier hadden. Hebben zij hier, op wandelafstand van de Janskerk (nu <a href=\"https://visit.gent.be/nl/zien-doen/sint-baafskathedraal-majestueus-statig\">Sint-Baafskathedraal</a>), het Lam Gods geschilderd? Geen enkele bron die het bevestigd of weerlegd, maar het lijkt alvast erg logisch. </p>\n\n<p>Op een van de buitenpanelen (links-midden) van het Lam Gods heb je een stadsgezicht door een vensterraam. Het zou het beeld kunnen geweest zijn dat Hubert en Jan zagen door hun raam vanaf de 2e verdieping: een straat met rechts op de hoek een steen, daarachter een kapel en op het einde houten huizen met een stadspoort. Al deze elementen waren hier toen. De wolweverskapel kan je vandaag nog \u2018bezoeken\u2019. Ga maar eens een kijkje nemen in de winkel in de Kortedagsteeg 12. De vorm van de stadspoort op het schilderij stemt echter niet overeen met de vorm van de Walpoort die er toen stond. Dus het is alvast geen exacte weergave van wat hij zag, maar wat hij zag was misschien wel de inspiratiebron.</p>\n\n<p><em>Wandel de Gouvernementstraat door tot op het einde (aan de kathedraal), neem rechts de Limburgstraat.</em></p></div>\n \n </div>\n\n <div class=\"paragraph paragraph--type--text paragraph--view-mode--full\">\n \n <div class=\"field field--name-field-heading field--type-heading field--label-hidden field__item\"><h2>Maaseikplein: standbeeld gebroeders Van Eyck</h2>\n</div>\n \n <div class=\"clearfix text-formatted field field--name-field-text field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item\"><p>Dit standbeeld van de gebroeders Van Eyck werd ontworpen door de jonge Gentse beeldhouwer Geo Verbanck en architect Valentin Vaerwyck in 1913. Het kwam er ter gelegenheid van de wereldtentoonstelling. Die vond plaats in de buurt van het Sint-Pietersstation, in het huidige Miljoenenkwartier. </p>\n\n<p>Toen het beeld in augustus 1913 door Koning Albert I werd ingehuldigd was het echter nog niet helemaal af. Van de linkse beeldengroep werd er een plaasteren versie geplaatst, die bronskleurig werd geschilderd, zodat het compleet leek.</p>\n\n<p>Voor de financiering van het beeld werd er gelobbyd bij landen die deelnamen aan de wereldtentoonstelling en steden waar Jan Van Eyck een link mee had. Alle sponsors werden bedankt met een schild op de achterkant van de beeldengroep. Je kan er naast Gent, Maaseik en Vlaanderen ook wapenschilden vinden van o.a. Nederland, Frankrijk, Duitsland, de VS en Rusland.

Het is pas in 1540, nadat Keizer Karel V de Sint-Baafsabdij liet slopen om er een Spaans Kasteel te bouwen, dat de kerk een nieuwe patroonheilige kreeg: de heilige Bavo. Toen Gent in 1559 een bisdom werd, werd de Sint-Baafskerk de <a href=\"https://visit.gent.be/nl/zien-doen/sint-baafskathedraal-majestueus-statig\">Sint-Baafskathedraal</a>. </p>\n\n<p>Sint-Baafs is, ook vandaag nog, d\u00E9 thuisbasis van het Lam Gods. Oorspronkelijk hing het in de Vijdkapel, de 1e kapel rechts achter het koor. In 1934 werden twee panelen gestolen: de Rechtvaardige Rechters en de grisaille van Sint-Jan de Doper. Sint- Jan werd teruggevonden, de Rechters bleven spoorloos. Elk jaar ontstaan weer nieuwe <em>urban legends </em>die menen te weten waar het paneel verborgen zit. Voor een betere conservatie verhuisde de triptiek naar de doopkapel links vooraan in de kathedraal. In 2021 zal men het Lam Gods opnieuw verplaatsen: naar de kapel van het H. Sacrament achter het koor, centraal in het nieuwe bezoekerscentrum.</p>\n\n<p><em>Ga nu links de Lange Kruisstraat in, ga naast restaurant \u2018De Abt\u2019 het steegje in tot je op de rechterkant een metershoge zwart-witte muurschildering ziet.</em></p></div>\n \n </div>\n\n <div class=\"paragraph paragraph--type--image paragraph--view-mode--full\">\n <figure>\n \n <div class=\"field field--name-field-media-image field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__item\">\n\n<div>\n \n <div class=\"field field--name-field-media-image field--type-image-with-copyright field--label-hidden field__item\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" data-copyright=\"\u00A9VisitGent\" title=\"\u00A9VisitGent\" src=\"/sites/default/files/styles/paragraph_image/public/media/img/2020-10/VisitReeks71-DT009310.jpg?itok=dJMfrK7l\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" alt=\"st-baafsplein met mensen op het terras, wandelaars\" class=\"image-style-paragraph-image\" loading=\"lazy\" />\n\n\n</div>\n \n </div>\n</div>\n \n <figcaption>\n <div class=\"field field--name-field-image-caption field--type-string field--label-hidden field__item\">Sint-Baafsplein</div>\n </figcaption>\n </figure>\n </div>\n\n <div class=\"paragraph paragraph--type--text paragraph--view-mode--full\">\n \n <div class=\"field field--name-field-heading field--type-heading field--label-hidden field__item\"><h2>Mageleinsteeg</h2>\n</div>\n \n <div class=\"clearfix text-formatted field field--name-field-text field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item\"><p>Op het pleintje prijkt een kunstwerk van de Argentijnse straatartiest Francisco Bosoletti.

Het kinderloos echtpaar wou met dit religieuze werk hun zielenheil redden.

Het was een steenrijke patrici\u00EBrsfamilie die het huis (lees: steen) waar jullie nu naar kijken bezaten. Vandaag staat het bekend onder de naam \u2018Borluutsteen\u2019. Het werd gebouwd in de tweede helft van de 12e eeuw in de, voor die tijd, typische blauwgrijze Doornikse steen. Er zijn maar weinig huizen uit die periode zo goed bewaard als dit.

Het resultaat dat jullie hier zien is een samenwerking tussen floriste Paulien Verhaest (haar winkel Blommm kan je een beetje verder in de straat vinden) en street art artiest Ceepil.</p>\n\n<p>Het kunstwerk werd in 2 stappen gemaakt: eerst maakte Ceepil het schilderij in zijn typische stijl door 2 figuren te combineren, vervolgens maakt Paulien de cape van Johannes De Doper uit verschillende bloemen en planten die te vinden zijn op het schilderij van Van Eyck. Het kunstwerk blijft evolueren. De bloemen verwelken, verschillende weersverschijnselen leven er zich op uit, waardoor het werk van Ceepil langzaam maar zeker meer zichtbaar wordt.

Een stad in diepe crisis werd terug een stad met economische welvaart. Maar met de welvaart kwamen ook de oude vetes tussen wevers en volders terug. In de emoties die gepaard gingen met deze vetes werd Jacob, nota bene door een wever, vermoord vlak voor zijn eigen huis op de Kalandeberg.</p>\n\n<p>Wist je dat Jacob Van Artevelde erg nauwe banden had met de Engelse koning Edward III? De Engelse koningin Fillipa beviel in de Sint-Baafsabdij van een zoon \u2018John of Gaunt\u2019. Jacob van Artevelde noemde zijn zoon Philips naar zijn meter koningin Filipa.

Vaak staan vrouwen centraal in haar werk. Het laken dat te zien is, legt de link met de rijke stoffen en de gewaden die op het Lam Gods te vinden zijn. Het bloemenmotief is een knipoog naar de botanische pracht op het kunstwerk. Hyuro verwerkt ook een politieke boodschap in haar werken. Hier is het niet anders: onder het laken verschuilen zich de mensen die politici nu liever \u2018onder het laken\u2019 verbergen: de vluchtelingen.

It was not until 1540, after Holy Roman Emperor Charles V had St Bavo\u2019s Abbey demolished for the construction of a Spanish Castle, that the church got a new patron saint: Saint Bavo. When the diocese of Ghent was created in 1559, the church of St Bavo became <a href=\"https://visit.gent.be/en/see-do/st-bavos-cathedral-majestic-tower\">St Bavo\u2019s Cathedral</a>. </span></span></span></p>\n\n<p><span><span><span>To this day, the cathedral continues to be the home base of the Ghent Altarpiece. It was originally displayed in the Vijd chapel, the first chapel on the right behind the choir. In 1934, twee panels were stolen: the Just Judges panel and the Saint John the Baptist grisaille painting. The Saint John the Baptist painting was retrieved, but the Just Judges panel is still missing. Every year, new urban legends<em> </em>appear<em> </em>that allegedly reveal where the panel is hidden. For better conservation, the triptych was moved to the baptismal chapel at the front left of the cathedral. In 2021, the Ghent Altarpiece was relocated once again to the Holy Sacrament chapel behind the choir, the centrepiece of the new visitor centre.</span></span></span></p>\n\n<p><span><span><span><em>Now turn left into Lange Kruisstraat and take the alley next to restaurant \u2018De Abt\u2019 until you see a black-and-white mural of several metres high on your right-hand side.</em></span></span></span></p></div>\n \n </div>\n\n <div class=\"paragraph paragraph--type--image paragraph--view-mode--full\">\n <figure>\n \n <div class=\"field field--name-field-media-image field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__item\">\n\n<div>\n \n <div class=\"field field--name-field-media-image field--type-image-with-copyright field--label-hidden field__item\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" data-copyright=\"\u00A9VisitGent\" title=\"\u00A9VisitGent\" src=\"/sites/default/files/styles/paragraph_image/public/media/img/2020-10/VisitReeks71-DT009310.jpg?itok=dJMfrK7l\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" alt=\"Sint-Baafsplein Ghent\" class=\"image-style-paragraph-image\" loading=\"lazy\" />\n\n\n</div>\n \n </div>\n</div>\n \n <figcaption>\n <div class=\"field field--name-field-image-caption field--type-string field--label-hidden field__item\">Sint-Baafsplein</div>\n </figcaption>\n </figure>\n </div>\n\n <div class=\"paragraph paragraph--type--text paragraph--view-mode--full\">\n \n <div class=\"field field--name-field-heading field--type-heading field--label-hidden field__item\"><h2>Mageleinsteeg</h2>\n</div>\n \n <div class=\"clearfix text-formatted field field--name-field-text field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item\"><p><span><span><span>The small square features a work of art by Argentine street artiest Francisco Bosoletti.

He was a wool merchant who took control over Ghent during the Hundred Year\u2019s War between France and England, united the Flemish cloth-making cities of Ghent, Bruges and Ypres, forged alliances with England and strengthened the ties between Flanders and Hainaut. You can read the entire history in the pedestal\u2019s reliefs.</span></span></span></p>\n\n<p><span><span><span>It\u2019s thanks to his efforts that Ghent was able to buy English wool and make and sell cloth.

By means of the cloth, Hyuro creates a link with the rich fabrics and garments shown in the Ghent Altarpiece. The floral pattern is a reference to the botanical splendour of the artwork. Hyuro often includes a political message in her creations. This work is no exception: the cloth covers people that politicians would rather hide: the refugees. This also explains why the work is called \u2018Covering the Uncovered\u2019.</span></span></span></p>\n\n<p><span><span><span><em>When you look at the mural, turn left.</em><em> </em><em>Cross Kammerstraat and turn into one of the enchanting little streets of Ghent: Serpentstraat.</em><em> </em><em>Turn right at the end, into Onderstraat.</em><em> </em><em>On your left, you\u2019ll find a narrow street called Werregarenstraat.</em><em> </em><em>Most Ghentians don\u2019t know that this is the street\u2019s real name,</em><em> </em><em>as it is commonly known as \u2018Graffiti Alley\u2019.</em></span></span></span></p></div>\n \n </div>\n\n <div class=\"paragraph paragraph--type--image paragraph--view-mode--full\">\n <figure>\n \n <div class=\"field field--name-field-media-image field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__item\">\n\n<div>\n \n <div class=\"field field--name-field-media-image field--type-image-with-copyright field--label-hidden field__item\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" data-copyright=\"\u00A9Michiel Devijver\" title=\"\u00A9Michiel Devijver\" src=\"/sites/default/files/styles/paragraph_image/public/media/img/2021-02/IMG_6919_druk%20%28c%29%20Michiel%20Devijver.jpg?itok=EMeSvr5Z\" width=\"320\" height=\"480\" alt=\"Hyuto\" class=\"image-style-paragraph-image\" loading=\"lazy\" />\n\n\n</div>\n \n </div>\n</div>\n \n <figcaption>\n <div class=\"field field--name-field-image-caption field--type-string field--label-hidden field__item\">Hyuro</div>\n </figcaption>\n </figure>\n </div>\n\n <div class=\"paragraph paragraph--type--text paragraph--view-mode--full\">\n \n <div class=\"field field--name-field-heading field--type-heading field--label-hidden field__item\"><h2>Werrengarenstraat (Graffitistraatje)</h2>\n</div>\n \n <div class=\"clearfix text-formatted field field--name-field-text field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item\"><p><span><span><span>You will end this walk in the footsteps of one of the best medieval painters ever, among works of art by contemporary artists.</span></span></span></p>\n\n<p><span><span><span>Graffiti is often looked at as a nuisance or vandalism. But in Werregarenstraat, also known as <a href=\"https://visit.gent.be/en/see-do/graffiti-alley-ghent\">Graffiti Alley</a>, everyone is free to do their thing on the walls. You\u2019ll find works by beginners, amateur artists and seasoned street artists. The street\u2019s appearance changes almost every week, because spray painting is allowed here. Some renowned street artists such as Klaas Van der Linden often visit the alley to paint a new work. Klaas often works in black and white and paints skeletons. If you look for his work, you\u2019ll find it.</span></span></span></p></div>\n \n </div>\n\n <div class=\"paragraph paragraph--type--image paragraph--view-mode--full\">\n <figure>\n \n <div class=\"field field--name-field-media-image field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__item\">\n\n<div>\n \n <div class=\"field field--name-field-media-image field--type-image-with-copyright field--label-hidden field__item\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" data-copyright=\"\u00A9VisitGent\" title=\"\u00A9VisitGent\" src=\"/sites/default/files/styles/paragraph_image/public/media/img/2021-02/browse%20%2820%29_0.jpg?itok=pYm8p_Ch\" width=\"320\" height=\"480\" alt=\"Graffitistraatje\" class=\"image-style-paragraph-image\" loading=\"lazy\" />\n\n\n</div>\n \n </div>\n</div>\n \n <figcaption>\n <div class=\"field field--name-field-image-caption field--type-string field--label-hidden field__item\">Graffitistraatje</div>\n </figcaption>\n </figure>\n </div>\n\n <div class=\"paragraph paragraph--type--brochure paragraph--view-mode--full\">\n \n </div>\n\n <div class=\"paragraph paragraph--type--map paragraph--view-mode--full\">\n \n <div class=\"field field--name-field-map field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__item\">\n<div class=\"fieldgroup--information-right--map\">\n \n <div id=\"map--ghent-city-guide-in-de-voetsporen-van-jan-en-hubert--ptPGc__container\" class=\"dg-maps-map map-container clearfix\"\">\n \n \n\n <button type=\"button\" class=\"map-region-toggle map-region-toggle--left hide-on-mobile\" data-toggle-region=\"left\" title=\"Toggle left region\">\n Show on the map\n </button>\n\n<div class=\"map-region map-region--left map-region--collapsible hide-on-mobile\" data-region=\"left\">\n <div class=\"behavior-placeholder\" id=\"map--ghent-city-guide-in-de-voetsporen-van-jan-en-hubert--ptPGc__data_layer_switcher\"></div>\n</div>\n \n <div id=\"map--ghent-city-guide-in-de-voetsporen-van-jan-en-hubert--ptPGc\" class=\"map-container__map map-container__map--has-left-region clearfix\">\n \n\n\n\n<div class=\"map-region map-region--right-top\" data-region=\"right-top\">\n <div class=\"behavior-placeholder\" id=\"map--ghent-city-guide-in-de-voetsporen-van-jan-en-hubert--ptPGc__zoom\"></div><div class=\"behavior-placeholder\" id=\"map--ghent-city-guide-in-de-voetsporen-van-jan-en-hubert--ptPGc__full_screen\"></div><div class=\"behavior-placeholder\" id=\"map--ghent-city-guide-in-de-voetsporen-van-jan-en-hubert--ptPGc__geolocation\"></div>\n</div>\n \n \n\n\n\n<div class=\"map-region map-region--right-top-left\" data-region=\"right-top-left\">\n <div class=\"behavior-placeholder\" id=\"map--ghent-city-guide-in-de-voetsporen-van-jan-en-hubert--ptPGc__geocoder\"></div>\n</div>\n \n \n\n\n\n<div class=\"map-region map-region--right-bottom\" data-region=\"right-bottom\">\n <div class=\"behavior-placeholder\" id=\"map--ghent-city-guide-in-de-voetsporen-van-jan-en-hubert--ptPGc__base_layer_switcher\"></div>\n</div>\n \n \n\n\n\n<div class=\"map-region map-region--right-bottom-left\" data-region=\"right-bottom-left\">\n <div class=\"behavior-placeholder\" id=\"map--ghent-city-guide-in-de-voetsporen-van-jan-en-hubert--ptPGc__scale_line\"></div>\n</div>\n </div>\n </div>\n\n \n <div id=\"map--ghent-city-guide-in-de-voetsporen-van-jan-en-hubert--ptPGc__popup\" class=\"ol-popup\" style=\"display: none;\" tabindex=\"-1\">\n <div id=\"map--ghent-city-guide-in-de-voetsporen-van-jan-en-hubert--ptPGc__popup-content\" class=\"ol-popup__content\"></div>\n <button id=\"map--ghent-city-guide-in-de-voetsporen-van-jan-en-hubert--ptPGc__popup-closer\" class=\"ol-popup__closer\" aria-label=\"Close\"></button>\n </div>\n \n </div>\n</div>\n \n </div>\n"@en .
