Another version of 'View of Rokin' is part of the collection of The Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam and is illustrated in H. Redeker and A. Venema, Kees Maks 1876-1967, Amsterdam 1976, p. 57.
Maks' way of painting clearly shows the influence of G.H. Breitner (1857-1923). In 1898 the artist's father owns two extensive studios on the Prinseneiland in Amsterdam: one for his son and one for Breitner. The only condition for Breitner to use the apartment, was to teach his son Kees.
