Interieur van de Nederlands Hervormde Kerk in De Rijp, Noord-Holland 1923

Leonard Vlaanderen's 1923 photograph "Interieur van de Nederlands Hervormde Kerk in De Rijp, Noord-Holland" captures the austere beauty of a Dutch Reformed Church. The image depicts the interior of the church, with rows of wooden pews leading to the altar. A large chandelier hangs from the ceiling, illuminating the space. The stark lines and simple forms of the architecture create a sense of calm and contemplation, reflecting the Protestant aesthetic. This photograph offers a glimpse into the architectural history and religious practices of the Netherlands.
