About this work

A cobbled town square is shown with a tall stone cross on a pedestal at left and a large brick Gothic church with twin towers at center. Figures in period dress walk across the square while dogs and chickens move about, and a brick tower with a spire rises at right. This townscape by Jan van der Heyden, dated 1675, presents an imagined view combining Cologne's towers of St. Pantaleon with the nave of the Martinikerk in Emmerik.
