This etching by Pieter Vogelaer, a Dutch artist working in the 17th and 18th centuries, depicts the Sint-Lievensmonstertoren and -kerk in Zierikzee, Netherlands. The image shows the church and its tower from a bird's eye view, with a depiction of a winged woman holding a cross, accompanied by two cherubs, floating in the sky above the building. This detail suggests the church’s sacred nature and the importance of faith. The artwork, titled "Gezicht op de Sint-Lievensmonstertoren en -kerk te Zierikzee," dates before 1696, and showcases Vogelaer’s skill in capturing architectural detail and creating a sense of perspective in this detailed depiction of a significant Dutch landmark.
