Alfred Sisley

Alfred Sisley, who came from the prosperous family of the English businessman, was a leading representative of impressionism. In his landscapes with the help of color and light effects, he conveyed a visual impression of the corner of nature, weather and atmosphere, like other impressionists, he creates his own artistic world, full of peace, simplicity, poetics and sincerity. He studied painting at the workshop of Charles Glair at the school of elegant arts, where he met with Claude Monet, Auguste Renoir and Frederick Basil close to him from his views. His first works are written under the influence of Camille Koru and to a lesser extent of the Courbet. His paintings are sometimes accepted by a salon (1866, 1868, 1870), and sometimes there is no (1867, 1869) By the end of the 1870s, sislei was fully formed as an impressionist artist. His style has not changed until the end of his life. Franco-Prussian war, illness and death of the Father
The artist’s family leads to ruin, and painting is the only source of its existence.
Sisley constantly lived near Paris, he was not up to travel and long trips. Types of small cities with their streets and unpretentious buildings, rivers, bridges, pieces of nature with running clouds, glare on the water and tangible air - the main content of its paintings. They are balanced by color scheme, full of feelings
And admiration for the world around. Due to the soft nature of the sisles, the absence of even mild shocking in his paintings, material well-being did not come to him (the only of the impressionists) until the end of his life.
The real recognition came to him only after death
