Approach to the Railway Station 1888

"Approach to the Railway Station" (1888) by Alfred Sisley (1840-1899) is a captivating depiction of a snowy landscape. The painting showcases Sisley's signature Impressionist style, characterized by loose brushstrokes and a focus on capturing the fleeting effects of light. The scene, likely set in the outskirts of Paris, features a snowy pathway leading toward a railway station, with a lone figure walking towards it. The delicate brushwork and pastel hues give the composition a sense of tranquility, while the muted tones and soft light evoke a sense of stillness.
