hello Gandalf, welcome to the GMB.               Your picture has been posted too small, and we are unable to view the detail  -  are you able to post again, with the first dimension of 700 - which should help us to see much more detail, which may help us to help you..............   can't guarantee we will have the answer though. :)

Welcome to the board. Unfortunately your photo is too small to expand and see. You have 125 kb per picture and the board creates the thumbnail. Making the longest dimension on a high-res picture usually works for resizing. You can upload four pictures per post

First hint - look at Egermann, other Bohemians and at Belgium: de Rupel and Laeken.
