This painting derives from an engraving by Jan van Londerseel, which in turn replicates a lost painting by Hendrik Aerts. The subject had erroneously been described as a depiction of the Archbasilica of St. John Lateran. The composition must have been exceedingly popular, as numerous other painted versions are known (see B. G. Maillet, Intérieurs d'Églises, 1580-1720: La Peinture Architecturale des Écoles du Nord, Wijnegem, 2012, pp. 178-186).
