Description: | De Blieck was an architect and painter of church interiors, working in Middelburg, Holland. The Ferens's example shows one of his most frequently repeated subjects. This interior scene may be the St Laurenskerk in Rotterdam, where the artist is known to have worked, but it is probably an imaginary scene composed of views of different structures. While the painting serves as a celebration of Dutch church architecture, the artist is careful to include subtle reminders of the society who mingled there. Men and women, together with children, and dogs, walk freely through the bisecting arches of the building. | Subjects: | everyday life; buildings and gardens; interior | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Blieck, Daniel de (Dutch architectural painter, ca. 1630-1673) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8712... | Go to resource |
