Wooden Bridge across a Canal at Rijswijk

Jacob Maris, c. 1878

Maris probably made this oil sketch close to his house, near the bridge depicted in it. It served as a prepara-tory study for a larger painting. The white bridge over the Rijswijk Canal features regularly in Maris’s work. The man in the blue smock on the boat also recurs as a colour accent in many of the artist’s paintings.
