Kerkinterieur in Frankrijk c. 1890 - 1910

"Kerkinterieur in Frankrijk" (c. 1890 - 1910), by Dutch photographer George Hendrik Breitner, captures the interior of a French church. The image focuses on a series of empty wooden pews, arranged in rows with intricate woven seats. The stark composition and use of light create a sense of quietude and contemplation, a common theme in Breitner's work. This photograph, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, provides a glimpse into the artist's exploration of architectural spaces and their social context.
