"Interior of the Laurenskerk, Rotterdam" is a notable oil painting by the Dutch Golden Age artist Cornelis de Man (1621–1706). Created in 1664, this work exemplifies the genre of church interior paintings, which were particularly popular in the Netherlands during the 17th century. The painting depicts a detailed and atmospheric view of the interior of the Grote of Sint-Laurenskerk, the only remaining medieval structure in Rotterdam and an iconic symbol of the city.

Measuring 109 cm by 85 cm, the artwork is renowned for its intricate portrayal of the church's Gothic architecture and the play of light and shadow across the vaulted ceilings and stone columns. De Man's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the rendering of the church's furnishings, the stained glass windows, and the numerous figures populating the scene. These figures, which include churchgoers and a preacher, provide a glimpse into the 17th-century Dutch religious life and social interactions within a sacred space.

Cornelis de Man, a native of Delft, was known for his portraits, genre scenes, and especially for his church interiors, a subject he returned to multiple times in his career. "Interior of the Laurenskerk, Rotterdam" stands as a testament to de Man's skill in perspective and his ability to capture the grandeur of the Netherlands' ecclesiastical architecture. The painting not only serves as a valuable piece of art but also as a historical document, offering insight into the period's cultural and religious context.

The painting is held in high esteem by art historians and is considered a significant contribution to the Dutch Golden Age's body of work. It is frequently studied for its artistic merits as well as its historical significance, as it provides a visual record of the Laurenskerk before it was heavily damaged during World War II and later restored. "Interior of the Laurenskerk, Rotterdam" remains an important work in the oeuvre of Cornelis de Man and a cherished piece of Dutch cultural heritage.
