Carel Allard's "Noorder Kerck" is an etching and engraving, dating from 1660-1693, which depicts a church in the Netherlands. It was originally part of the collection "Tooneel Der Voornaamste Nederlands Huizen, En Lust Hoven, Naar T Leven Afgebeeld", a series of etchings by Allard that documented prominent buildings and gardens in the Netherlands. The image shows the church with a tall tower and a surrounding wall, set against a backdrop of a canal and trees. The etching's detailed portrayal of the church and its surroundings provides insight into the architectural landscape of the Dutch Golden Age.
