Dreams of rooms and interiors. Always thought that the interior of Flemish cathedrals reflected a state of mind.
Antwerp Cathedral has two Rubens' masterpieces. In The descent from the Cross below: Christ is dead and all life has gone from him yet he is still the source of light and centre of the painting despite the brilliant colours of people's clothes around him. (Cannot take credit for this brilliant thought - it was drawn to my attention this morning.)
