Interior of Chapel. is a 1776 by James Lambert senior, a Romanticism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This drawing shows the inside of a chapel, viewed from the front. Tall windows with pointed arches let in light, and the walls are plain stone blocks. In the center sits a simple wooden pulpit with a red cloth draped over it, and a small table with a candle holder nearby. The floor has a few scattered benches. The artist focused on the quiet, geometric shapes of the space—no people, just the hard lines of the architecture. The light from the windows makes the stone walls look solid and cool.
