EDITORS COMMENTS
This painting depicts the interior of the Chapel in St. Peter's Church of Louvain, Belgium, dating back to circa 1916. The serene atmosphere of the chapel is beautifully captured in this image, with its intricately decorated walls and vaulted ceiling adorned with ornate details. One of the most notable features of this chapel is the presence of the tombs of Duke Henry I of Brabant and his family. Duke Henry I, who ruled Brabant from 1212 to 1235, is depicted in his tomb along with his wife, Matilda of Boulogne, and their daughter, Marie. These tombs can be found in one of the side chapels, adding a sense of historical significance to the already impressive space. The painting, which is believed to be by Alfred Delaunois (not to be confused with the company), showcases the rich colors and textures of the chapel's interior. The muted tones of the stone walls contrast beautifully with the vibrant hues of the stained glass windows, casting a warm, inviting glow throughout the space. This painting is a testament to the artistic and historical importance of St. Peter's Church in Louvain. It offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to imagine the lives of the people who once worshipped and were buried within its walls. This image, from the March of the Women Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, is a must-have for anyone with an interest in European history, art, or architecture.
