The Hall of Mirrors was originally established in the early 20th century as a tribute to King Leopold and his quest to free Congo but, sadly after his death in 1909, the project came to a halt (Headley). King Leopold had the walls decorated with marble and copper, along with scenes dedicated to Congo. Later After his death King Albert I added the mirrors that line the whole wall. It was not until 2002 that the Queen asked Jan Fabre to finish the room and decorate the ceiling and chandelier ("The Royal Palace of Belgium"). With the help of 30 other artists Fabre decided to take on this huge task. Named "Heaven of Delight", this fresco uses the brightly colored florescent wings of jewel beetles. Depending on the angle they are viewed they turn fascinating different shades of green and blue. The entire ceiling and chandelier are covered with beetle wings that took about 3 years to finish (Amy). Fabre first started with rough drawings and sketches in blue ballpoint pen by following the beetles on the paper. He then continued to replace the ballpoint lines with the insect wings. Even though the actual work on the ceiling only took 3 months it took years to perfect his masterpiece and plan it all out. He started out with creating different forms and patterns by gluing the beetles to small surfaces. He had his assistants start creating different shapes and patterns and assigned different areas to different assistants until the whole ceiling was covered (Amy). Now that it is finished it can be viewed by people all over the world when they come to visit the Palace of Brussels in Belgium.
