anything is easier when you have good help "Although the Old Church never had a chapter (a group of monks and priests who sing the daily prayers), the church still has choir stalls. Exactly who made the choir stalls is unknown, but it was probably a sculptor living in Amsterdam. The clothes worn by the figures on the misericords display the fashion of 1480, so we can also assume that this was when the stalls were made. The iconoclasm that took place in the Old Church on 26 September 1566 did not affect the misericords. The typical traces of this destruction - the mutilation of hands and faces - is missing here. Still to be seen on the misericords is a wide array of subjects, some merely decorative while others depicting everyday scenes. Very conspicuous are the many proverbs that are illustrated: about a third of the original misericords includes one." www.oudekerk.nl/infoeng.htm#misericords 04/10/2006
