JPEG file comment | SAENREDAM, Pieter Jansz
(b. 1597, Assendelft, d. 1665, Haarlem) Interior of the Church of St Bavo in Haarlem 1648 Oil on panel, 200 x 140 cm National Gallery of Scotland, Edinburgh Acknowledging the absence of significant Church patronage in the Northern Netherlands, several painters, most innovatively Pieter Saenredam, created a new genre of church painting that celebrates the clean walls of Protestant churches, virtually devoid of decoration. In Calvinist churches the most important piece of furniture was the pulpit, from which preachers read and preached to the congregation. In this painting the pulpit leans against a distant pillar. This church interior belongs to one of the 'neutral' genres of painting that Calvin had authorized for use in decoration and teaching rather than in religious ritual. The prominent organ displays biblical fragments exhorting worshippers to use music and songs to praise God and to teach Christian values. These references contribute, probably deliberately, to the Calvinist debate on organ music in services. While strict theologians considered music too frivolous, most churches continued to use organs.
