Interieur van de Geboortekerk in Bethlehem 1867 - 1885

Félix Bonfils, a renowned photographer of the 19th century, captured the interior of the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem with his photograph "Interieur van de Geboortekerk in Bethlehem," between 1867 and 1885. The photograph showcases the architectural details of the church, featuring a large pillar and a vaulted ceiling, while providing a glimpse into the sacred space. This photograph, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, stands as a testament to Bonfils's skill in capturing the essence of religious architecture.
