ABC Wednesday – S is for …

… Alfred Sisley (1839 – 1899)

Sisley was an English Impressionist landscape artist, born in France where he lived for most of his life.

This is one of his paintings that particularly appeals to me – Small Meadows in Spring (c.1881)

This shows ‘le Chemin des Petits Prés‘, an oil painting of a riverside path which ran along the left bank of the Seine, connecting the villages of Veneux and By. The path has now been replaced by a paved walkway. The village visible on the opposite bank is Champagne.

  4. Sisley’s Small Meadows in Spring is perfect for S day, and perfectly lovely, too.
