About the piece

Painted in 1876, 'In Winter, Snow Effect' is a classic example of Alfred Sisley's ability to capture the fleeting atmosphere of the French countryside. This Impressionist landscape utilizes a sophisticated palette of cool blues, soft grays, and warm earth tones to render the crisp air and fresh snow of a winter afternoon in Marly-le-Roi.
