A view down the central aisle of a baroque church. Several richly dressed male figures in wide-brimmed hats stand on the tiled floor. A priest stands at an altar to the left and two figures kneel. The church is imaginary, an architectural caprice based on Italian churches of the sixteenth century and inspired by J.V. de Vries' perspectival exercises published in 1604 and 1628. The figures may be by Palamedes
