Near Louveciennes 1876

"Near Louveciennes" is an oil painting by Alfred Sisley, created in 1876. It depicts a rural road winding through a lush landscape, framed by trees and a fence. The scene is bathed in a soft, diffused light, characteristic of Sisley's Impressionist style. His delicate brushstrokes capture the movement of foliage and the interplay of light and shadow, conveying a sense of tranquility and atmosphere. The painting is currently on display at the Wallraf-Richartz Museum in Cologne, Germany. The work reflects Sisley's interest in capturing the fleeting effects of light and weather on the natural world, a key element of Impressionism.
