Ontwerp voor glasraam twaalf in kerk te Oudshoorn 1663 - 1667

This drawing, created by Dutch artist Pieter Jansz. between 1663 and 1667, is a design for a stained-glass window in the church of Oudshoorn. The design features a coat of arms framed by elaborate baroque ornamentation and cherubic figures, common stylistic elements of 17th-century Dutch art. Jansz.'s detailed sketch exemplifies the meticulous planning that went into stained-glass windows during this period. The use of a grid system within the design indicates a clear understanding of the technical aspects of glassmaking. This artwork provides valuable insight into the artistic practices and patronage of Dutch church art in the 17th century.
