Sisley Paintings

Alfred Sisley was an English Impressionist landscape painter recognised as the most dedicated of his contemporaries to painting “en plein air” Impressionist artwork: He never dabbled in portraits or figure paintings, instead producing a thorough and poetic collection of French and English landscapes. Among his most important works are a series of paintings of the Hampton area on the River

Sisley’s Regattas

For English/French Impressionist Alfred Sisley, 1874 was a huge year in his somewhat understated career. As one of the few Impressionists who persisted with the en plein air methodology for the duration of his career, and as one of the few who never deviated into figure painting, Sisley’s work has historically been overshadowed by that of his Impressionist brethren. It wasn’t easy to stand out when you were surrounded by the likes of Claude Monet, Camille Pissarro, Pierre-August Renoir, Edgar Degas and Frédéric Bazille among others. Sisley’s work bore a close resemblance to that of Pissarro, even though comparisons were more often made between Sisley and Monet, with Sisley almost inevitably being placed behind Monet in terms of the esteem in which his paintings were held.

It may not be as glamorous as the French Connection, but Alfred Sisley’s connection to Wales was just as important to the artist in many ways. Despite its spectacular landscapes and coastlines, Wales doesn’t often find itself being immortalised on canvas, and apart from Sisley, we’re not sure that any of the other Impressionists headed any further west than London’s West End. So what was it that drew this most devout of Impressionists away from the staple artistic diet of French countryside, and for the more adventurous among them, English Rivers? Could it be that because unlike the others, Sisley had never deviated from Impressionism, and thus he had managed to completely exhaust the go-to range of Impressionist landscapes? Poplars, fields and rivers at Moret-sur-Loing? Done. Series of paintings of the River Thames? Done.
