Daniel de Blieck is a ray of hope in an otherwise dark period of painting in Middelburg.His understanding of interiors and the clarity of his drawing skills can clearly be traced back to his formal training as an architect, while the concept of depicting imaginary church interiors is a direct response to the work of Hendrick van Vliet and Anthonie de Lorme. Rarer in de Blieck's oeuvre are detailed views of Renaissance palaces such as the present one.
