Orchard 1885

Alfred Sisley's "Orchard" (1885) is a pastel drawing that captures the tranquility of a French landscape. The composition features a winding path leading through a grove of trees, with the light filtering through the leaves and casting dappled shadows on the ground. The use of soft, delicate colors and loose brushstrokes creates a sense of Impressionism, a style Sisley is known for. The viewer is invited to wander through the serene landscape, as if transported to the peaceful scene.
