Description:Born in France of English parents, Alfred Sisley is the least known of the original group of painters who came to be known as the Impressionists. Over-shadowed for more than a century by his friends Monet, Renoir, and Pissaro, he is at last being acclaimed as the great painter he truly is. 'Alfred Sisley, The English Impressionist' is a sensitive biography of the painter, charting the development of his career from comfortable middle-class beginnings through the flowering of his artistic genius. Despite later poverty and continual critical neglect, the artist never wavered in his commitment to his painting and his vision. Sisley painted the world about him - churches, bridges, rivers, fields and trees, in various moods and lights, and the changing sky which was his inspiration. His paintings, sixty of which are reproduced here in full colour, reflect the obsession with Nature which was fundamental to the Impressionist movement. In this book, the breathtaking beauty of Sisley's work is fully revealed. Setting his life and work in context, the author demonstrates conclusively the quiet genius of this gentle painter.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
