Framed Alfred Sisley (1839-1899) oil on board on panel landscape painting, "Un Paysage L'Hiver" (A Winter Landscape). Signed lower right. Photo of back of panel attached to backing. Dimensions: 11"h x 13-3/4"w; frame: 14"h x 17-1/4"w. Impressionist landscape painter, born in Paris, studied commercial painting. In 1862 he entered the studio of Gleyre, where he met Renoir, Monet and Bazille. He and his friends left about five months later and began to paint out of doors, directly from nature, in the region of Paris and in the Forest of Fontainebleau. Exhibited with the Impressionists in 1874, 1876, 1877 and 1882, and had his first one-man exhibition at La Vie Moderne, Paris, in 1883. After working at Louveciennes, Marly-le-Roi, Sèvres and elsewhere on the outskirts of Paris, he settled in 1880 near Moret-sur-Loing, and painted there most of his late works. Also worked in Britain in 1874 (especially around Hampton Court) and 1897 (the coast near Cardiff). Please contact Witherell for shipping this item.
