I went through various pictures of churches in Bruges and there it was..The Jerusalem Chapel in Bruges

@i need help, Very impressed! Thank you for the clue!

I don’t think anyone can argue this isn’t the same chapel:

The Jerusalem Chapel is the private chapel of the Adornes family, an Italian merchant family from Genoa. The chapel was consecrated in 1429 and was inspired by the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem. The architecture, layout and extraordinary relics provide an exceptional illustration of the great reverence of the Adornes family for Jerusalem. The tomb, the wonderful stained glass and the relic of the Holy Cross are unique. The private chapel is still used by the family for religious events, but now and again it is also used for classical concerts and lectures on heritage and art. The chapel can be accessed from the entrance in the Adornes Estate.

 

Oh, clever you, Sam!

The place lools a lot better in reality!

Either the chapel's walls were painted white when this was done or the painter took some shortcuts..

 

They may well have been plastered at one time and then restored.

Not convinced its the same wall/window...my childhood experience with Highlights magazine "spot the differences" puzzles makes me hesitate...

Very exciting to see the actual location. Little has changed.

PS: The other day, I spent about 30 minute googling the crest in the stained glass and became overwhelmed. Nice to see they are based in reality.

 

Debora, seems like it.. I found this other painting from 1857 and the walls were plastered here as well.
