Description: | Signed: yes Description: In the second half of the nineteenth century, the picturesque houses and canals in Dordrecht's old city centre, together with the town's artistic history (Albert Cuyp was born here), attracted many artists. For Jacob Maris especially the old harbour and the Grote Kerk were of particular interest. He filled numerous canvases with images of Dordrecht under various weather conditions, such as snow and the early morning sun. In this painting, heavy rain clouds are approaching the city. | Subjects: | townscape; place (Dordrecht) | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Maris, Jacob Henricus (Dutch landscape painter, 1837-1899) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8758... | Go to resource |
