## Commentary

This view of the interior of the Oude Kerk is taken from the northern aisle to the east. The Mariakoor \(Mary&#39;s Choir\), with the tomb of Elisabeth van Marnix Morgan \(erected in 1609\) is seen in the background, flanked by stained-glass windows that were blown out in the Delft explosion of the following year. The stone archway - which bears the crest of Delft - and the pavement of the street are painted on wood with a flat surface.
