Jacob Maris DUTCH: 1837-1899
VIEW OF DORDRECHT
Water Color
Height, 17½ inches; length, 22½ inches
This is a view across a broad canal in the populous Dutch town, showing a number of bluff-bowed vessels alongside the quay, and beyond are a number of houses alternating with clumps of trees, dominated by a lofty church tower. The sky is filled with luminous summer sunlit clouds.
