Monument funéraire Lasserre — Dworp (Beersel)

Funerary monument of the Lasserre family in the Dworp cemetery, designed by Henry Lacoste and erected in 1946 after the death of the young Roseline Lasserre; the plans, kept at CIVA, are dated 10 May and 1 October 1946. The inventory describes it as an Art Deco funerary monument. It originally consisted of nine bronze plaques inspired by strapwork cartouches, hung on the stepped west brick wall of the cemetery; six identically shaped plaques survive today, arranged around a central arrow-shaped plaque bearing a poppy, and the position of the lost plaques remains legible thanks to the surviving drip mouldings. Projecting bricks and small dentilled drip mouldings support and protect the plaques, and the grave garden partly retains a box hedge clipped in a zigzag. It has been a protected monument since 2020.
