About this work

A watercolor view of the interior of a Gothic church, showing a richly carved spiral staircase with openwork balustrades and statues at its upper landing. Groups of people in period dress gather in the nave, and tall pointed windows admit soft light. The work is by Émile-Antoine-François Herson and is dated 1864.
