inspired by several European artists; John Constable (painter of the English
countryside), artists from the French Barbizon school, and certainly the
Impressionists. In many of Duren's interior paintings we see his love for

also came under the influence of American artists, Albert P. Ryder, George
Inness, Edward Hopper and painters from the "Ashcan" school.
