Alfred Sisley's "Church of Moret" (1893) is an Impressionist painting that depicts the Church of Saint-Nicolas in Moret-sur-Loing, France. Sisley, known for his plein-air paintings, captures the interplay of light and shadow on the building's facade. The soft, brushstrokes and vibrant colors characteristic of Impressionism are evident in the depiction of the sky and the building's intricate details. This painting, currently housed in the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Rouen, exemplifies Sisley's fascination with capturing the fleeting effects of natural light and atmospheric conditions on the landscape.
