Font Notes:
The baptismal font in use is, like the church itself, modern [cf. ImagesArea], a rather typical design often found in Victorian churches in England. There is however a drawing by J. Winnink in one of the baptismal and marriage registers in this church that merits mention [cf. ImagesArea]: a shallow round basin with cherubs on the sides, raised on three slender legs around which wraps a serpent; the legs of the font end in claws and stand on a triangular lower base or plinth. It is likely just that, a drawing, but one of an uncommon font design. The drawing is signed with the author's name and a date that is hard to read but could be 1805, which could correspond to the fleurishing period of his career as a painter of stage scenery for the Amsterdam theatre in the early 19th century.
Credit and Acknowledgements: We ae grateful to Pol Herman for introducing Winnink's drawing to BSI
