Side-Aisle at St Bavo Church in Haarlem
1695
From the collection of Statens Museum for Kunst
This photo shows the inside of a church with tall, arched ceilings and thick stone pillars. A few people stand around, dressed in old-fashioned clothes. The walls have small windows with diamond-shaped glass, and there’s a wooden railing in front of a raised platform. The lighting is dim, with shadows stretching long across the floor, giving the space a quiet, serious feel. The church’s design looks heavy and grand, with lots of stone and dark wood. If you like this kind of church, look up grote kerk next.
