His paintings are based in a world that is not our own. Essentially Surrealism is founded in a stark contrast to all paintings before them. Before, paintings were of reality or of things that could possibly exist. Surrealism strove to break the mold of what the world essentially understood to be "Art".

A town could have more than one church, and when it did, it was sometimes the case that neither was really dominant.
