Washington DC's National Gallery of Art holds 9 works by Alfred Sisley (1839–1899) — the city's entire known holding of this artist in a single institution.
Sisley is the quietest of the Impressionists, but his landscapes have a delicacy and precision of observation that rewards attention. In person, the freshness of his brushwork — the sense of air, moisture, and changing light — is more apparent than any reproduction conveys.
