Roberts visited Belgium several times, circa 1825-6, 1845, 1849, 1850 and 1861. On his 1845 trip he was in Brussels from 21 September.
The full dedication of the Cathedral in Brussels is to Sts. Michael and Gudule and this view seems to show one of the 16th and 17th century chapels in the choir, noted for its stained glass windows.
