Painting:
June Morning in Saint-Mammès

Artist:
Alfred Sisley

Date:
1884

In the 1880s, Sisley shifted his base to the area along the Loing River, a tributary of the Seine, southeast of Paris. Saint-Mammès is a quiet village at the junction of the Loing and the Seine. The river on the left side of this painting is the Seine. The row of poplars is on its left bank. On the right bank (on the left, in the painting) is the hill on which the village of La Celle is located. There is a bridge over the river, upstream (to the upper right), but it is not included in this painting. Sisley has rendered the leaves of the poplar trees individually, as though to express the effects of light and shadow. The blue shadows of the buildings fall boldly across the road on the embankment. The row of poplars on its left and the buildings on the right converge in the right rear of this painting, in a composition that Sisley was fond of using. This tranquil scene communicates the invigorating briskness of a June morning.

Alfred Sisley was an Impressionist landscape painter who was born and spent most of his life in France, but retained British citizenship. He was the most consistent of the Impressionists in his dedication to painting landscape en plein air. He deviated into figure painting only rarely and, unlike Renoir and Pissarro, found that Impressionism fulfilled his artistic needs.

Among his important works are a series of paintings of the River Thames, mostly around Hampton Court, executed in 1874, and landscapes depicting places in or near Moret-sur-Loing. The notable paintings of the Seine and its bridges in the former suburbs of Paris are like many of his landscapes, characterized by tranquillity, in pale shades of green, pink, purple, dusty blue and cream. Over the years Sisley's power of expression and colour intensity increased.
