Musée des Beaux-Arts, Tournai

The Musée des Beaux-Arts in Tournai, Belgium, is an art museum.

The Belgian Art Nouveau architect Victor Horta started drafting a new building that would contain the Van Cutsem donation and other holdings already owned by the city of Tournai but the First World War intervened and construction was delayed.

Horta abandoned his first designs made in a typical Art Nouveau style, shifting to the popular art deco style.

The building, which opened in 1928, is a graceful curved version of usually strict linearity of art deco, in this, it is similar to Horta's Brussels Central Station.
