## Commentary

The château of Modave, in the province of Liege is a contemporary conception with a remarkable affinity to the most modern ideas of European country-house building of the time, particularly to those of François Mansart. The dignified symmetry with a triangular pediment accenting the main frontage, the geometrical articulation of the walls, the mansard roofs have much in common with Mansart&#39;s country houses, &lt;a onclick=&#34;return OpenOther\(&#39;/html/m/mansart/maisons2.html&#39;\)&#34; href=&#34;/html/m/mansart/maisons2.html&#34;&gt;such as Maisons-Lafitte.&lt;/a&gt;
