Sisley

"Alfred Sisley is now recognized as one of the great landscape
painters of the 19th century, and a leading figure in the
Impressionist movement. He divided his time between France and
England and the illustrations in this volume include the snow
scenes of the Paris suburbs, his views of the flooded Seine at
Port-Marly, and his paintings of the regattas on the Thames, which
have been described as embodying ""the perfect moment of
Impressionism"". This series acts as an introduction to key artists
and movements in art history. Each title contains 48 full-page
colour plates, accompanied by extensive notes, and numerous
comparative illustrations in colour or black and white, a concise
introduction, select bibliography and detailed source information
for the images. Monographs on individual artists also feature a
brief chronology."
