About the piece
Created by the Flemish master Pieter Neefs the Elder around 1604, this oil on copper painting is a superlative example of seventeenth-century architectural perspective. The composition leads the eye through the meticulously rendered nave, where the interplay of light and shadow emphasizes the grand scale of the Gothic masonry and the quiet presence of small figures below.
