Interior of a Protestant Gothic Church
by WITTE, Emanuel de, Oil on panel, 45 x 34 cm
Emanuel de Witte concentrated on church interiors, but seems to have been more interested in the artistic effect. He was not concerned whether the interior was recognizable, and also abandoned a focused perspective, instead creating an impression of depth with the effects of light and shade.
The interior shown in the picture contains motifs from the Oude Kerk in Amsterdam.
