About the piece
Painted in 1881, this masterwork by Alfred Sisley exemplifies the Impressionist fascination with light and season. The scene depicts the river Loing in France, rendered with a light, rhythmic touch and a palette of soft lavenders, golds, and pale blues that perfectly evoke the crisp air of a late autumn day.
