About the piece
Painted in 1661 by Flemish master Pieter Neefs the Elder, this oil on panel captures the majestic scale of a Gothic church interior. The work is celebrated for its precise linear perspective and the warm, atmospheric light that filters through high stained-glass windows, illuminating the quiet activity of the figures below.
