Altaar 1857 - 1864

"Altaar" (Altar) is a lithograph by Emrik & Binger created between 1857 and 1864. It depicts the intricate details of a gothic-style altar within a church, with a figure kneeling in prayer at the foot of the altar. The artwork captures the ornate design of the altar, including its towering spires, elaborate carvings, and decorative elements. This work is a prime example of 19th-century architectural illustration. The detail and precision of the drawing make it a valuable resource for understanding the artistry of medieval craftsmanship. This lithograph is now housed at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
