It is an alluring view. He has captured the lengthy shadows and raking light of a bright morning in a city street populated with people from all walks of life.\n\nMost of the architecture is broadly accurate. Building work on the cathedral had ground to a halt 100 years earlier, and the strange contraption on top of the tower on the right is the original medieval crane. The shadowy stump just behind the line of trees is the north-west tower.\n\nWhile the layout of the building is correct, many details, such as the window traceries, are not. And some other buildings – notably the two in the right foreground – appear to be entirely made up. Van der Heyden’s concern was, most likely, to produce a pleasing view rather than a strictly accurate record.\" - (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalgallery.org.uk\/paintings\/jan-van-der-heyden-a-view-in-cologne\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"National Gallery of Art London - A View in Cologne\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eNational Gallery of Art, London\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jan van der Heyden","offers":[{"title":"No Size Selected (Select a Size)","offer_id":50509733200115,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Replica Size (13\" x 16 7\/8\")","offer_id":50509733232883,"sku":null,"price":483.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Signature Size (15 3\/4\" x 20 1\/2\")","offer_id":50509733265651,"sku":null,"price":695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Classic Size (19 1\/4\" x 25\")","offer_id":50509733298419,"sku":null,"price":895.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gallery Size (23 1\/2\" x 30 5\/8\")","offer_id":50509733331187,"sku":null,"price":1295.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Statement Size (30 3\/8\" x 39 1\/2\")","offer_id":50509733363955,"sku":null,"price":1995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Grand Size (36 1\/2\" x 47 5\/8\")","offer_id":50509733396723,"sku":null,"price":2795.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Estate Size (43\" x 55 7\/8\")","offer_id":50509733429491,"sku":null,"price":3695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Museum Size (51 5\/8\" x 67 3\/8\")","offer_id":50509733462259,"sku":null,"price":4995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0827\/5738\/6483\/files\/AViewinCologne.jpg?v=1789154864","url":"https:\/\/commissionedpaintings.com\/products\/a-view-in-cologne-ngal967","provider":"Commissioned Paintings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
