Urban scenes and buildings were among his most frequently chosen motifs. He was also an important painter of architecture and vedute. This artistic style is about the most realistic, almost photographic depiction of landscapes and city panoramas. Veduta pictures often seem like scenery and remind a bit of city pictures on postcards.
After his schooling he began an apprenticeship as a house and decoration painter with Andries de Wit. His older brother Henry was working as an architect at that time. Cornelis was fascinated by the work of the older brother. From him Cornelis learned perspective drawing, which is especially important for architecture. Further stations of his studies Cornelis Springer had with the artists JJacobus van der Stok, Hendrik Gerrit ten Cate and Kaspar Karsen. Characteristic of Springer's early works after his studies were the idealized city views, which he initially provided with elements of fantasy. Later on, from the 1950s onwards, his works became increasingly realistic and depicted the typical architecture and buildings of his time in detail. This type of painting was particularly popular at that time.
During his travels, the Dutchman got to know numerous cities in Europe. He captured the many different views of cities during this time in his paintings. In 1863 he spent some time in Bremen. He made numerous sketches and pictures of the Bremen market place. Some of these works were exhibited in the Kunsthalle Bremen. Since these works have been lost, they have unfortunately been lost for posterity. One of the Bremen works was fortunately in the art collection of the merchant Hermann Henrich Meier Junior. The original and art prints of the work are still preserved today. Despite the topographical accuracy, Springer's works are in the style of Romanticism. The individual lighting mood in his works still inspires art lovers worldwide today. The harmonious colouring lends the paintings a pleasant aesthetic and a warm comfort. Subtle contrasts between light and shadow set exciting accents. The gaze is deliberately directed into the distance by Springer's picture compositions.
Cornelis Springer's works of art are then and now known in the Netherlands and beyond. They are a popular motif for art prints of all kinds. His hometown Amsterdam and the port city Enkhuizen were the main sources of inspiration for his works. In contrast to Amsterdam, Enkhuizen was a rather quiet and small-town place. Picturesque buildings from the heyday of the 17th century can be found in many of the artist's works. The characteristic Dutch architecture and attractive city views are captured in the artist's snapshots. During his creative period Springer became an influential figure in Amsterdam's artistic life. He was chairman and honorary member of the Amsterdam Art Society.
