"Brand in de kerktoren te Amersfoort" ("Fire in the church tower at Amersfoort") is a depiction of a fire that occurred in the church tower of Amersfoort, Netherlands in 1804. This graphite drawing by Dutch artist Jordanus Hoorn (1753-1833) shows a group of people gathered in the street observing the fire. The scene is illuminated by the bright flames engulfing the tower, creating a dramatic and almost otherworldly effect. This drawing captures a historical event in Amersfoort, giving viewers a glimpse into the past through the lens of Hoorn's artistic skill.
