"Saint Mammes" is an oil on canvas landscape painting created by Alfred Sisley in 1885. Sisley, a prominent figure in the Impressionist movement, is known for his serene depictions of the French countryside. In this piece, he captures the quiet beauty of a river scene, with a village in the distance and lush greenery in the foreground. The soft light and gentle brushstrokes contribute to the overall sense of tranquility. This painting showcases Sisley's characteristic use of light and color, a hallmark of Impressionist art.
