Bluff-bowed fishing boat on the beach at Scheveningen

Bomschuit on the Scheveningen beach. Maris painted a bomb barge by the sea no less than sixteen times. They are studies of air and atmosphere. In order not to be bothered by the constant change of light, he worked in his studio. He also preferred to choose his colors indoors, because according to Maris one sometimes had to "exaggerate in order to get to know the power of colors".
