large tree with carvings in its bark, set in a wooded area
Momentlarge tree with carvings in its bark, set in a wooded area. At the base of the tree, resting on a large rock, is a plaque. The plaque is written in both French and Dutch. The French text states: "LA VILLE DE BRUXELLES EN TEMOIGNAGE DE RECONNAISSANCE A DEDIE CET ARBRE A JULES BUYSSENS ARCHITECTE - PAYSAGISTE QUI A DIRIGE L'AMENAGEMENT DE CE PARC FORESTIER 1934". The Dutch text states: "DE STAD BRUSSEL ALS BETUIGING VAN ERKENTELYKHEID HEEFT DEZEN BOOM TOEGEWYD AAN JULES BUYSSENS LANDSCHAPSARCHITECT DIE DE AANLEG VAN DEZE WARANDE BESTUURD HEEFT 1934". Below this, in smaller text, is "A.S.B.L. LANDSCAPE INSTITUTE V.Z.W. 1991". This suggests the tree was dedicated in 1934 to Jules Buyssens, an architect-landscaper who directed the development of this forest park, and the plaque was installed by the Landscape Institute in 1991. The environment is a forest with a path visible in the background, dappled sunlight filtering through the leaves, and foliage covering the ground.
