This image depicts a gray-toned document showcasing two photographs of model housing in Belgium, under the title "Improved Workmen’s Dwellings: Belgium."

  • The left photograph shows a row of eight houses located at "Rue du Foyer Schaerbeekois." These buildings have a traditional European architectural style, with sloped roofs, tall windows, and decorative façades.

  • The right photograph features five houses located at "Rue du Corbeau." These appear more uniform in style, displaying a similar European aesthetic with larger ground-floor windows and tidy rooflines.

Beneath the images is a caption that reads: "Model Dwellings erected by the Commune Schaerbeek Brussels." The visible text highlights efforts to create improved housing for workers, possibly during the early 20th century.
