This richly illustrated publication allows us to peak over the shoulder of Dutch painter, etcher and lithographer Matthijs Maris (1839-1917) as he works on his pictures. A precursor of the Symbolist movement who initially trained in Hague School landscape painting, Maris spent his whole career in search of techniques that would allow him to break free from painting reality. He was a singular figure in his own time and notoriously secretive about the working methods that produced his mysterious paintings. Matthijs Maris at Work, published to accompany the artist's first complete career retrospective, features the research of conservators and technical art historians on 15 of the artist's key works. For the first time, the enigmatic structures of Maris' paintings and his idiosyncratic combinations of materials are explained, offering a glimpse into the artist's experimental zeal and unorthodox studio practice.

From the Back Cover
Fifteen key works have been subjected to extensive scientific study and sources have been researched. For the first time, it is possible to answer questions about the structure of his paintings and the way he combined different materials. The book also reveals what the artist did to achieve the detachment he sought both in his work and in his personal life. His studios in The Hague, London and Paris and the stores in which he bought his supplies also get their fair share of attention. Maris's painting technique, experimental zeal and unorthodox work process are discussed extensively.
