This is an image of the the so called 'Van Leeuwen'-organ in the 'Nieuwe Kerk' ('New Church'), Middelburg, Zeeland, the Netherlands. 'New Church' doesn't mean that the is church is new. It's an ancient one (15th century) but got this name after it was built. The organ was built about more than two centuries later, in 1693.

Hope you'll like this image. Thanks in advance for your comment.

PS: See this one and this one for more detailed images.

A wonderful masterpiece of art and construction. It is quite awesome and this view makes it even more majestic. Would love to hear the sound that emanates from the pipes of this enchanting instrument that has survived over three centuries. Beautiful shot, Cornelius.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . .

Nice to see a church related shot get a good score Sea. It should have been higher. A great shot of magnificent workmanship.
Good health to you and yours.
