Alfred Sisley was French impressionist landscape painter; born in Paris to English parents. He was a founding member of the Impressionist group. Sisley produced some 900 oil paintings; about 100 pastels and many other drawings; although he only lived to be 59 years old. He never turn aside into figure painting and; unlike Renoir and Pissarro; never found that Impressionism did not fulfill his artistic needs. Among the Impressionists Sisley has been overshadowed by Monet; although his work most resembles that of Camille Pissarro. Influenced by his friends Renoir and Monet in his selection of colors; Sisley was less daring than Monet in his use of the "rainbow palette" and closer to the Barbizon School tradition.
