Disambiguation link notification for February 26

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Stephens' kangaroo rat, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Frank Stephens. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Sainte-Catherine ?

Salut, Cymbella,

Désolé de répondre ici, comme tu le sais ça m'est "un peu" difficile pour l'instant sur WP.FR ;-)

Il semble que l'église représentée soit Sainte-Catherine de Bruxelles, mais non celle actuelle, édifiée fin XIX°, voir l'article, et voir cette page sur Flickr où certaines photos montrent la tour avec le bulbe et l'horloge.

Bien à toi. Olivier Hammam (talk) 15:57, 30 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Bonsoir Olivier,

Merci pour ta suggestion mais je peux t'affirmer que ce n'est pas l'ancienne église Sainte-Catherine de Bruxelles. En effet, Henri Lallemand est en réalité mon trisaïeul (ou le frère de celui-ci) et je possède chez moi une autre version de ce tableau du Musée royal d'art moderne à Bruxelles montrant l'église Sainte-Catherine et le clocher est différent ! Je n'ai pas l'impression qu'il s'agit d'une localité belge, mais je peux me tromper...

Cordialement, Cymbella (talk) 19:18, 30 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Salut encore, Cymbella. Pour l'église je te fais confiance, pour la localisation par contre, la bâtisse au premier plan me donne à croire que ça se situe en tout cas, soit en Belgique soit aux Pays-Bas, à cause de la partie supérieure droite de la façade. Sans certifier qu'on n'en voit nulle part ailleurs, du temps que j'habitais aux Pays-Bas, j'ai vu beaucoup de bâtiments officiels lors de mes trajets entre Pays-Bas et France (les «hôtels de ville» et les sièges de corporations notamment) avec ce genre de pignons et une partie, généralement la droite, plus haute d'un ou deux étages que l'autre partie. Mais ça pourrait être aussi en Flandre française, c'est vrai, on en voit aussi quelques-unes de ce genre. Olivier Hammam (talk) 20:43, 30 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
