About the piece
Painted in 1875 by Alfred Sisley, this work is a masterclass in Impressionist light and atmosphere. Capturing the Valley of the Seine at Saint Cloud, Sisley uses a delicate palette of greens, ochres, and blues to render the movement of clouds and the quiet beauty of the French countryside.
