This photo of the Koorhek in de Petruskerk te Zuidbroek is by an anonymous photographer from Monumentenzorg. It captures a moment, or perhaps the idea of a moment, with a real sense of atmosphere. The image almost seems to melt before your eyes, with these wispy lines that trace the architecture. It’s not about clarity, it’s about feeling. Look closely at the way the light gently grazes the ornate woodwork of the choir screen. The details aren't sharp, but that’s the point – it’s the overall tone that matters. It reminds me a bit of some of Gerhard Richter’s blurred paintings, where the focus isn’t on precision but on the way images fade and transform in our memory. There's a sense of quiet contemplation here, inviting us to slow down and consider the many layers of history and interpretation. It's a reminder that art, like memory, is always evolving.
