Cityscape
Maris’s city views are not topographically accurate, which is why they were given neutral titles. He was interested above all in composition and atmosphere. The painter himself said: ‘If I feel it is necessary to interrupt the long, straight roof lines, I simply add a domed roof, especially where the sky or cloud formation calls for such support. Why should I not be allowed to build my own cities?…
