00:26Alfred Sisley, a French Impressionist painter, was born on October 30, 1839 in Paris, France.
00:36The Franco-German war financially ruined the Sisley family, but Sisley still decided to make painting his full-time career and struggled with poverty for the rest of his life.
00:49Among the Impressionists, Sisley has been overshadowed by Monet, although his work most resembles that of Camille Pissarro.
00:59Described by art historian Robert Rosenblum as having almost a generic character, an impersonal textbook idea of a perfect Impressionist painting, his work strongly invokes atmosphere, and his skies are always very impressive.
01:15The Banks of the Luan Moray was painted by Sisley in 1885.
01:23This autumnal view uses slightly coarser marks and strong color contrasts.
01:29These bring the foreground even closer and push the background very deep.
01:35Sisley's trees here incorporate the wide range of types of mark, more typical of Coro.
01:42The paint elsewhere has been applied in quite thick daubs, everywhere supporting the horizontal movement driven by the wind.
01:51There is still some anatomical structure, but the canopies are now exuberant and more substantial.
01:59The range of greens used for foliage is quite limited, although they cover a wide range of tones.
02:06Unlike Degas, Renoir, Cassatt or Morizot, Sisley focused almost expressly on representations of the atmosphere, while diminishing the importance of the human figure, if they appeared at all.
02:23At the moment, the Banks of the Luan Moray is an Albertina museum in Vienna, Austria.
02:29Fogg-Voazen was painted in 1874, the year of the first Impressionist exhibition in Neydar's studio, to which Sisley contributed five paintings.
02:43British by nationality, although he was born in Paris and spent almost all his life in France, Alfred Sisley settled at Voazen, a village near Louvassiennes, in Seine-et-Oise, in 1871.
03:00That is probably where he painted this fog effect, with a hint of a fence in the background.
03:06Foliage on the left, a tree with twisted branches on the right, beneath which a crouching woman seems to be picking flowers.
03:17But more than a peasant woman in her garden, the protagonist of the painting is the silvery mist, which blurs the shapes and the background into a bluish-gray tone.
03:28Fogg-Voazen, one of the most atmospheric paintings by any Impressionist, it is mystifying that Sisley's wonderful landscapes have been all but forgotten.
03:39Fogg-Voazen is kept in Mose d'Orsay in Paris, France.
03:44The road from Versailles to Saint-Germain was created in 1875.
03:51In the 1870s, Sisley, like his colleagues Monet and Pissarro, often painted the roads, bridges and waterways, linking Paris with the rapidly suburbanizing villages to the north and west.
04:07Rather than simply represent the details of a place, Alfred Sisley painted the light of a beautiful summer day and the twinkle in the trees and the grass.
04:19He painted this landscape in outdoor study, somewhere near the road, on the way to Versailles, to Saint-Germain.
04:27Coors hatch painting resembles a rough sketch, but Sisley found this finished picture.
04:34The loose, summery brushwork is characteristic of Sisley's technique in the latter part of the decade.
04:41The road from Versailles to Saint-Germain is located in J. Paul Getty Museum in Pasadena, Los Angeles, the United States.
05:04That's considered a 일이, not toました.
05:18That's why we could withdraw numbers on TV plate a lot of subjections when our work looks together, at the same place.
05:21The road from Versailles to Saint-Germain
05:24is located in구�sey.
05:25The road from Versailles, the road from Versailles is located at the lake요.
