Reformation in Images
1. What differences do you notice between these two church interiors? What kind of emotional responses would each of them have evoked?
2. IN what ways do these church interiors reflect differences between Protestant and Catholic theology (religious beliefs)? Why might the Protestant congregation face toward the pulpit, from which the minister presents his bible based sermon, while the Catholic worshippers looks toward the alter, where Holy Communion (Eucharist) takes place?
3. How might Protestants and Catholics have reacted upon entering each others churches?
4. The first image of a Dutch Reformed Church is a painting. Why the artist might showed the people disproportionally small?
