You're standing on the Place Royale in Brussels, in front of an elegant white building from the late eighteenth century. This is the Hôtel du Lotto, and inside is the Magritte Museum. Now look up at the roof. See that giant apple? It arrived in 2023, after a six-month renovation. A nod to Magritte, the painter of apples that block your view.
